Effects of Expectancy and Mindfulness Instructions on Chronic Pain
Measuring the Frame: Examining the Clinical and Neurophysiological Impact of Verbal Expectations and Practice Instructions in a Mindfulness Exercise for Chronic Pain
This randomized 2×2 factorial study will examine how verbal expectancy framing and mindfulness-specific practice instructions influence acute pain and brain activity in adults with chronic pain. Sixty meditation-naïve adults will be assigned to one of four conditions combining positive or negative expectancy framing with either a guided mindfulness exercise or a sham-meditation comparison exercise. Pain intensity, pain unpleasantness, anxiety, desire for pain medication, and mindfulness-related psychological states will be assessed before and immediately after the intervention, while electroencephalography (EEG) will be used to measure changes in brain activity during the exercise. The study is designed to clarify the independent and combined contributions of expectancy and mindfulness-specific instructions to acute pain relief and neurophysiological responses.

|
Pain Intensity
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
Current pain intensity will be assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 indicating the worst pain imaginable. Pain intensity will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention; the primary analysis will compare post-intervention ratings across experimental conditions while adjusting for the corresponding pre-intervention rating. |
Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
|
Pain Unpleasantness
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
Current pain unpleasantness will be assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale, with 0 indicating not at all unpleasant and 10 indicating extremely unpleasant. Pain unpleasantness will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention; the primary analysis will compare post-intervention ratings across experimental conditions while adjusting for the corresponding pre-intervention rating. |

Anxiety
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
Current anxiety will be assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale, with 0 indicating not at all anxious and 10 indicating extremely anxious. Anxiety will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention; analyses will compare post-intervention ratings across experimental conditions while adjusting for the corresponding pre-intervention rating. |
Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
|
Desire for Pain Medication
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
Current desire for pain medication will be assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale, with 0 indicating no desire at all and 10 indicating the strongest possible desire. Desire for pain medication will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention; analyses will compare post-intervention ratings across experimental conditions while adjusting for the corresponding pre-intervention rating. |
Immediately before and after the 15-minute intervention
|
|
Change in Frontal-Midline Theta Power
Ramy czasowe: During the 15-minute intervention relative to the 5-minute pre-intervention resting baseline
|
EEG frontal-midline theta power in the 4-8 Hz frequency band will be measured over a prespecified frontal-midline region of interest centered on Fz, FCz, and Cz. Mean theta power during the assigned exercise will be expressed relative to the 5-minute eyes-closed resting baseline. |

Mindfulness
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and immediately after the 15-minute intervention
|
State mindfulness will be assessed using the 3-item state version of the Metacognitive Processes of Decentering scale (MPoD-3). Scores will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention to characterize intervention-related changes in state mindfulness. |

Self-Transcendence
Ramy czasowe: Immediately before and immediately after the 15-minute intervention
|
State self-transcendence will be assessed using the 3-item state version of the Nondual Awareness Dimensional Assessment (NADA-3). Scores will be assessed immediately before and after the intervention to characterize intervention-related changes in state self-transcendence. |
Immediately before and immediately after the 15-minute intervention

|
Expected effectiveness of the mindfulness exercise for reducing pain will be assessed using a 0-10 numeric rating scale, with 0 indicating not at all effective and 10 indicating extremely effective. |

|
Post-Intervention Treatment Credibility
Ramy czasowe: Immediately after the 15-minute intervention

Immediately after the 15-minute intervention
|
|
Number of Participants Reporting an Unpleasant or Adverse Experience
Ramy czasowe: Immediately after the 15-minute intervention
|
Participants will indicate whether they experienced an unpleasant or adverse experience during the intervention using a Yes/No item. Participants responding Yes will have the opportunity to provide a free-text description of the experience. |

Perceived Sociocultural Scaffolding of the Study Encounter
Ramy czasowe: Immediately after the post-exercise processing period, prior to debriefing.
|
Perceived sociocultural features of the study encounter will be assessed using a 12-item exploratory questionnaire developed for this study. Participants will rate each item on a 1-7 Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree. The questionnaire includes four 3-item subscales assessing: (1) appeal to expert authority, (2) relational alliance-building, (3) ritualization of study procedures, and (4) co-constructed meaning-making. Higher scores on each subscale indicate greater perceived presence of that sociocultural scaffold. |
Immediately after the post-exercise processing period, prior to debriefing.
