“…The prevalence of this problem and its significance meant that kinesiophobia has been and continues to be studied in an increasing number of different disease entities [ 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. For neurological diseases, there are few empirical studies devoted to kinesiophobia in neurological diseases [ 30 , 31 , 32 ] and this problem is still poorly understood.…”

Background: Stroke (S), multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s disease (PD) are chronic neurological diseases that are a challange for public health and represent a real social problem. Physical activity (PA) improves functional performance, reduces various symptoms in PD and MS, in stroke- reduced neurological impairment of patients and provides a chance for independence. One of the main obstacles in successful rehabilitation is patients’ movement passivity. The reason might be the psychological aspects, in particular fear of movement—kinesiophobia. Aim: To determine how many patients with S, MS, and PD suffer from kinsiophobia and what factors influence this process. Methods: Fifty patients after stroke, eighty one MS patients and sixty one PD patients were consecutively recruited from hospital and outpatients clinics. The sociodemographic data, self- assesment of fitness, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) and The Modified Baecke Questionnarie for Older Adults for physical activity were collected. A score >37 was considered to indicate a high level of kinesiophobia according to the TSK. Results: High level of kinesiophobia was shown in 66.67% of the subjects. TSK medians in particular illnesses were above the cut-off score and amounted: S—42.50 points; MS—38 points; PD—42.00 points. Regression showed 15% of fluctuation of variance (R2 = 0.1498; p < 0.0001), where regression factor showed: for mobility self-assessment: b = −0.2137 and for the age b = 0.0065. Conclusions: Kinesiophobia among the patients suffering from S, MS and PD concerns most of the subjects. Predictors of kinesiophobia are: limitations connected with functioning and age. The meaning of kinesiophobia in neurological disorders requires further research.

“…Subsequently, avoidance behaviour as an adaptation to pain in the long term would develop disuse, disability, and depression [5]. Kinesiophobia had been widely assessed in various conditions including Parkinson's disease, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis, and low back pain (LBP) [6–9]. …”

Objectives This study aims (1) to determine the association between kinesiophobia and pain, muscle functions, and functional performances and (2) to determine whether kinesiophobia predicts pain, muscle functions, and functional performance among older persons with low back pain (LBP). Methods This is a correlational study, involving 63 institutionalized older persons (age = 70.98 ± 7.90 years) diagnosed with LBP. Anthropometric characteristics (BMI) and functional performances (lower limb function, balance and mobility, and hand grip strength) were measured. Muscle strength (abdominal and back muscle strength) was assessed using the Baseline® Mechanical Push/Pull Dynamometer, while muscle control (transverse abdominus and multifidus) was measured by using the Pressure Biofeedback Unit. The pain intensity and the level of kinesiophobia were measured using Numerical Rating Scale and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia, respectively. Data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficients and multivariate linear regressions. Results No significant correlations were found between kinesiophobia and pain and muscle functions (all p > 0.05). Kinesiophobia was significantly correlated with mobility and balance (p = 0.038, r = 0.263). Regressions analysis showed that kinesiophobia was a significant predictor of mobility and balance (p = 0.038). Conclusion We can conclude that kinesiophobia predicted mobility and balance in older persons with LBP. Kinesiophobia should be continuously assessed in clinical settings to recognize the obstacles that may affect patient's compliance towards a rehabilitation program in older persons with LBP.

“…The psychometric properties of the scale have been checked in different languages [9–13] and for different pain disorders (e.g., low back pain [14, 15], neck pain [13], Parkinson's disease [16] and heart failure [17]). The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for Temporomandibular Disorders (TSK-TMD) was recently developed by Visscher et al to assess of fear of movement in TMD patients [18].…”

BackgroundThe aim of the study was to validation of the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for Temporomandibular Disorders (TSK-TMD) for use in patients with painful TMD.MethodsThe original TSK-TMD was translated and cross-culturally adaptated following international guidelines. A total of 160 patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) were enrolled to fill out the scale. The internal consistency and test-retest methods were used to evaluate the reliability of the TSK-TMD. The validity of the TSK-TMD was analyzed by content validity, construct validity and convergent validity. Construct validity was assessed based on exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and convergent validity by examining the correlation between the global rating of oral health question and TSK-TMD scores.ResultsCronbach’s alpha value for the total TSK-TMD score was 0.919 and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) value for the TSK-TMD was 0.797. Construct validity was assessed by EFA, extracting two factors, accounting for 71.9% of the variance. The factor loadings of all items were higher than 0.40. In terms of convergent validity, the TSK-TMD subscales showed good correlations to the global rating of oral health question.ConclusionThese findings show that the Chinese version of TSK-TMD has satisfactory psychometric properties and is appropriate for use in patients with painful TMD in China.
