Brief summary (from the registry)

Background: Kinesiophobia or fear of movement, is defined as an excessive and irrational fear of physical movement to avoid painful injury, harm or re-injury. The existing scales measuring kinesiophobia are thought to have some limitations (the difficulty of patients to understand and answer the questions, the presence of questions that are not suitable for the patient's condition). These questionnaires may not have specific questions enough to assess fear of movement in different patient populations. Aim: The aim of this study is to develop and validate the Turkish Atılım Kinesiophobia Scale. Material/method: In the first stage of the study, research on kinesiophobia was reviewed and a total of 38 questions were created for the scale. The questions were submitted to the opinion of 11 experts working in the physiotherapy and rehabilitation field. Then A total of 100 patients with acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain completed the Turkish Atılım Kinesiophobia Scale and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia.
