Abstract

The coping mechanisms utilised by patients with the fibromyalgia syndrome (FM) pose a crucial focus of treatment. Previous research points to the positive effects of religiosity and spirituality (R/S) as tools for coping with illness. The role of these factors in coping with chronic pain in FMS has not previously been studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the link between R/S and FMS outcomes.
