Peer reviewedWorthington, Everett L., Jr.; Shumate, Michael – Journal of Counseling Psychology, 1981

Women who used imagery controlled their pain better; women who did not use imagery had longer tolerance when they heard pain conceptualized as a multistage process. Self-instruction did not affect pain control. (Author)
