About

With this randomized controlled trial, we have three aims. First of all, to investigate underlying mechanisms that might contribute to the success of a physical activity focused self-management program in paediatric chronic pain.

Second of all, to determine the minimum intervention needed for improving physical activity amongst adolescents who live with chronic pain. For this we are comparing an in-person and a video-based motivational interviewing training combined with self-management techniques.

Third of all, to investigate the mediating effect of autonomy in adolescents with chronic pain.
