Expectancies in Migraine Patients

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of the present study is to examine whether the standard treatment prescribed to migraine patients is potentiated when coupled with a verbal instruction inducing more hope and optimism. In order to achieve the goal, outpatients with low-frequency episodic migraine diagnoses (\<8 attacks per month) and outpatients with chronic migraine diagnoses (\>15 attacks per month) will be screened and enrolled, thereafter they will be exposed to verbal instruction inducing more hope and optimism or to verbal instruction inducing hope and optimism together with standard treatment. We hypothesize that the group receiving verbal instruction inducing more hope and optimism would develop larger improvements in all outcome measures.
