How and for whom does a positive affect intervention work in fibromyalgia: An analysis of mediators and moderators

DiscussionIn fibromyalgia patients, the effects of the BPS on the outcomes seem to be more related to changes in affect than to changes in future expectations.SignificanceThis is the first study to present evidence about who can benefit from an intervention designed to augment positive affect and promote positive functioning in FMS patients and how these changes occur. It extends previous findings on patient characteristics associated with the response to pain management interventions.
