Official title
Development of the Multidimensional Kinesiophobia Scale for the Upper Extremity: A Scale Development Study
Overview
Questionnaires/scales used to evaluate kinesiophobia in the literature are limited and are not specific to the upper extremity in existing scales. For this reason, the primary purpose and subject of the study is to develop a multi-factor kinesiophobia scale specific to shoulder problems. The study is an observational research. Participants will be interviewed twice in total. All primary and secondary outcomes will be assessed at the first meeting. The second come will be performed within 5-7 days after the first assessment. In the second come, only the new kinesiophobia scale that is intended to be developed will be applied.
Primary outcome measures
- Multidimensional Kinesiophobia Scale (To be developed) [Time frame: Baseline of the study]
- Multidimensional Kinesiophobia Scale (To be developed) [Time frame: 5-7 days after baseline assessment]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Visual Analog Scale [Time frame: Baseline of the study]
- Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale [Time frame: Baseline of the study]
- Demographic Data Form [Time frame: Baseline of the study]
