| Research Abstract |
The aim of the present study was to develop a new cognitive behavioural intervention program which was based on mindfulness for chronic pain outpatient. Furthermore, we investigated the effect of that program. To development, 4 preliminary experiments was conducted to examine the active ingredient of mindfulness. The result of these studies suggested that the meta-cognitive awareness and acceptance were important factors at the process of mindfulness. The new 6 week program which took into account these finding was developed and the effectiveness of the program was examined. The Results of preliminary analysis showed that the frequency of outpatient visit was significantly decreased after the participation in the program.
