Study Summary

This study is aimed at developing ways to prevent acute pain from becoming chronic pain--specifically, pain associated with whiplash-associated disorders (WADs) from motor vehicle accidents. Research on the development of chronic pain due to musculoskeletal injury suggests that a person's initial emotional reactions, particularly fear of reinjury and subsequent avoidance of activity, contribute significantly to chronic pain and persistent disability. This study will treat people with WADs during the first three months after a motor vehicle accident with a behavioral and physical exercise program designed to encourage activity and discourage continued fear of movement, pain, and disability. The study will compare the effectiveness of two anxiety-reduction treatments to standard care in reducing pain and activity limitations in people with WADs in the 2 to 3 months after motor vehicle accidents.
