The treatments were given weekly over 8 weeks. Global and continuous outcome measures were used. Analysis was by chi-square for global data and MANOVA with baseline scores as covariants for continuous variables. No significant differences could be demonstrated. The scores over a 6-month follow-up period suggested a delayed positive advantage for CBT but this only approached and did not achieve statistical significance. The findings are discussed.enHumansPainAmitriptylineTreatment OutcomeFollow-Up StudiesBehavior TherapyAdultMiddle AgedPain ClinicsFemaleMaleSurveys and QuestionnairesJournal article0030005899001995114610.1016/0304-3959(94)00087-U2-s2.0-002883410269905
