July 7, 2022 updated by: Ismail Saracoglu, Kutahya Health Sciences University

Brief Summary:

The aim of this study was to determine the Turkish validity and reliability of ''UW Concerns About Pain Scale'' developed by Dr. Amtmann.

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Chronic pain is a common condition, affecting an estimated 20% of people worldwide. The biopsychosocial model of chronic pain is the most current accepted approach to understanding the complexity of pain and disability. One of the most important psychosocial factors in this approach is pain-related self-efficacy, which is defined as the individual's confidence in their ability to tolerate pain and participate in daily activities despite pain. The aim of this study is to determine the Turkish version, validity, and reliability of ''UW Concerns About Pain Scale''. 60 people with chronic low back pain will include in the study. In order to determine the reliability of the scale, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) will be used to determine the level of the relationship between the results of the first and second measurements. Cronbach's alpha coefficient will be used for the homogeneity of the questions in the scale. For construct validity, the correlation coefficient will be used to determine the agreement between the Turkish version of Pain catastrophizing scale and, Turkish version of "Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire" and The ''UW Concerns About Pain Scale''.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
UW Concerns About Pain
Time Frame: 8 minutes
The UW Concerns About Pain is intended measure an individual's level of pain catastrophizing. We will use to 8 item form, in study.
8 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Turkish version of Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS)
Time Frame: 10 minutes
PCS was developed by Sullivan et al. in order to identify the catastrophic thoughts or feelings of the patients about the pain and ineffective coping strategies.The scale is a Likert-type self-assessment scale consisting of 13 items.Each item is scored between 0-4 points.The total score ranges from 0 to 52.High scores indicate a high level of catastrophizing.
10 minutes
Turkish version of "Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire"
Time Frame: 10 minutes
FABQ was developed Waddell et al. in 1993. FABQ consists of 16 questions and 2 parts. While the first part of the scale evaluates attitudes about physical activities, the second part evaluates attitudes about occupational work. Scoring of the questionnaire is done with a 7-point Likert type scale. The Physical Activity section is scored between 0-24 and the labor section is scored between 0-36. A high score in KKTS indicates an increased level of fear-avoidance attitudes related to low back pain.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
February 1, 2022

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
