Project description

Many patients with fibromyalgia avoid physical activities because of pain and fatigue. This research project aims to understand and increase behavioural maintenance (the ability to maintain physical activities in the presence of pain/fatigue) and behavioural recovery (the recovery of PA after periods of bedrest and inactivity) using a diary methodology (Ecological Momentary Assessment) and aggregated single case experimental designs.
