Abstract

Consumer perspectives of group-delivered programs for people with chronic pain were examined, with a focus on psychosocial factors and the impact of the group itself. A systematic review of qualitative literature synthesised findings related to the group itself from 94 studies, providing insights on the importance of peer interaction and social comparison processes. An analysis of survey data from 109 participants in a South Australian program identified the group itself as a significant factor. Together, these studies highlight the role of social factors in group-delivered pain programs and offer practical recommendations for clinical practice.
