Much is known about the associations between negative factors and adjustment to chronic pain. However, less is known about how positive factors (e.g., positive affect [PA], resilience) function in relation to disability and mood in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS). To better understand how positive factors contribute to function we sought to determine if (a) PA and/or trait resilience moderate the associations between pain intensity and function (pain interference, depressive symptoms), and (b) trait resilience concurrently mediates the association between PA and function in a sample of individuals with MS.
