Abstract

Chronic pain is the most common complaint in older people. Evidence indicates ‎that spirituality is effective in pain management. This study was conducted to ‎investigate the relationship between pain self-efficacy and spirituality among older ‎adults in Khorramabad, Iran. A significant positive correlation was observed ‎between pain self-efficacy and spirituality (r = 0.31, p < .001). Spirituality, gender, ‎education, and economic status explained 0.68 of the study population’s pain self-‎efficacy variance. Regarding the relationship between spirituality and pain self-‎efficacy, promoting spirituality can improve pain self-efficacy among older adults.‎
