Brief summary (from the registry)
Aim: The aim of this project is to identify chronic low back pain patients´ beliefs about the origin and meaning of pain for developing a biopsychosocial web-based educational intervention.

Methods: Mixed methods design, combining both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. For the qualitative part of this study, the investigators will use qualitative in-depth semi-structured interviews. For the quantitative phase we will use an experimental study design. Subjects: Chronic low back pain patients between 18-65 years old, attending a primary care setting in the city of Lleida. Expected outcomes: The investigators expect to change and modify chronic low back pain patients´ cognition by using our web-site educational intervention, with the further outcome of reducing pain and disability.
