OBJECTIVE: To review the status of empirically supported treatments for
recurrent abdominal pain (RAP). METHODS: We identified studies based on
literature search and contact with experts in the field and evaluated
studies based on guidelines modified from the criteria established by the
Task Force on Promotion and Dissemination of Psychological Procedures.
RESULTS: Nine published intervention studies were identified that fell into
three distinctive approaches: operant procedures, fiber treatments, and
cognitive-behavioral treatments. CONCLUSIONS: Operant procedures did not
meet even the most lenient category (promising intervention) of the
guidelines. Fiber treatment for RAP associated with constipation met the
criteria for a promising intervention. Cognitive-behavioral treatment met
the criteria for a probably efficacious intervention. We discuss
implications and offer recommendations for future intervention research.
