Measure Description
Time Frame
Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 6 months.
Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia is a checklist of 17 questions developed to measure the fear of movement and re-injury. It is used in many situations such as Acute and chronic pain, Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS), musculoskeletal system related injuries, etc. Items in the scale are scored according to a 4-point Likert scoring.
