Aims: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of emotion focused therapy on the metaphorical perception of pain and time in patients with musculoskeletal pain.
Materials & Methods: The study method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and control group. The population was all people with chronic pain in the 2024 in Tehran. According to this purpose, 30 patients with musculoskeletal pain were selected voluntarily and randomly assigned to intervention and control groups (experimental group=15, and control group=15). The Questionnaire of the study was Raiisi`s Pain Metaphorical Perception, and Raiisi`s Time Metaphorical Perception. The experimental group received twelve sessions of 90-minute emotion focused therapy. The control group did not receive any intervention. The data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance by SPSS-26.
Findings: The results indicated that emotion focused therapy significantly increased components of pain (object, force, human, and causality), and time metaphorical perception (matter, place, and object) in patients with musculoskeletal pain (P<0.001).
Conclusion: The findings of this research emphasized the effectiveness of emotion focused therapy on the pain, and time metaphorical perception. As a result, evidence-based psychotherapeutic approaches such as emotion focused therapy can influence metaphorical understanding.
