The review revealed preliminary evidence that people with chronic pain may exhibit less differential US expectancy and fear learning. This characteristic may contribute to widespread fear-avoidance behavior. The assumption that altered classical conditioning may be a predisposing or maintaining factor for chronic pain remains to be verified.
