The Role of Positive Affect in Pain and Its Treatment

Abstract: This narrative review summarizes and integrates the available literature on PA and pain to: 1) Provide a brief overview of PA and summarize the key findings that have emerged in the study of PA and chronic pain; 2) Provide a theoretical foundation from which to understand how PA operates in the context of chronic pain; and 3) Highlight how the prevailing psychosocial treatments for chronic pain address PA in the therapeutic context, and offer suggestions for how future treatment development research can maximi… Show more

“…First of all, in numerous experiments positive emotions primarily seemed to lower pain sensitivity following acute pain inductions (Finan and Garland, 2015). In a recent experiment, positive emotions impaired the generalization of fear of movement from acute experimental pain to similar situations during an experiment with healthy individuals (Geschwind et al, 2015).…”

“…In a recent experiment, positive emotions impaired the generalization of fear of movement from acute experimental pain to similar situations during an experiment with healthy individuals (Geschwind et al, 2015). In the context of chronic pain (for reviews, see Finan and Garland, 2015;Ong et al, 2015), among other things, positive emotions appear to foster lower pain levels and adaptive recovery from pain (Zautra et al, 2001;2005b).…”

“…Es más, en la actualidad se ha propuesto un modelo que permite conceptualizar cómo diversos constructos de la psicología positiva, como el afecto positivo y el optimismo, intervienen en los procesos de adaptación y autogestión del dolor crónico (Finan y Garland, 2015). Teniendo en cuenta este modelo, nuestro objetivo fue desarrollar una intervención para pacientes con fibromialgia con el fin de promover factores psicológicos positivos que ayuden a afrontar mejor el dolor.…”

“…Sin embargo, los ejercicios psicológicos positivos específicos no han sido extraídos y puestos a prueba de manera independiente en pacientes con dolor crónico (Finan y Garland, 2015). Los tratamientos psicosociales con evidencia empírica para el dolor crónico incluyen intervenciones para promover la salud, pero a menudo éstas se presentan a los pacientes dentro de un enfoque dirigido a minimizar los aspectos negativos del dolor, o incluidas dentro de "paquetes de tratamiento" que incluyen varios ejercicios (Flink, Smeets, Bergbom, y Peters, 2015;Muller y cols., 2016), por lo que es difícil analizar el papel específico que juegan las IPPs.…”
