In recent years, Taiji has been frequently investigated and considered as a stress management intervention. Although health care providers' appraisals and consumers' expectations are regarded as essential for treatment outcome, little attention has been drawn to this issue in Taiji research. In our study we have conducted two surveys to explore beginners' (n = 74) expectations and teachers' (n = 136) appraisals of their Taiji courses in general as well as more particularly related to stress management. Qualitative data analysis revealed that beginners mainly expected to learn a new method that is applicable in their daily life to foster peace of mind and to enhance their stress management. Congruently moderate-to-high improvements in stress management have also been found in quantitative analysis, whereby a lower educational level predicted higher expectations (P = 0.016). Taiji-teachers stated body- and mind-related benefits most frequently and appraised moderate-to-high improvements in stress management. Higher appraisals were predicted by a shorter teaching experience (P = 0.024). Our results inform about beginners' expectations and teachers' appraisals related to a Taiji-beginners course and highlight the role of educational background and teaching experience in shaping stress-management-related beginners' expectations and teachers' appraisals.

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that multiple factors influence upper extremity work disability including worker clinical and psychosocial features, economic considerations, and workplace physical, psychosocial, and organizational factors. [Adams et al, 1994;Cheadle et al, 1994;Blanc et al, 1996;Higgs et al, 1997;Katz et al, 1997;Nathan et al, 1997;Polanyi et al, 1997;Atroshi et al, 1998;Carmona et al, 1998;Katz et al, 1998;Olney et al, 1999;Shin et al, 2000;Butler and Liao, 2002;Trumble et al, 2002;Waylett-Rendall and Niemeyer, 2004]. However, many of these studies are cross sectional or retrospective [Adams et al, 1994;Blanc et al, 1996;Higgs et al, 1997;Polanyi et al, 1997;Olney et al, 1999;Shin et al, 2000;Waylett-Rendall and Niemeyer, 2004].…”

“…Knowledge of appropriate and useful factors, such as the contribution of worker characteristics [258], work-related factors [259], and beliefs and expectations to the therapeutic process [260,261], is reported as having major implications for management and interventions aimed at preventing prolonged disability. Developing modalities for the early screening of individuals with a higher probability of developing prolonged disability is seen as one of the main goals of clinical prognosis.…”

Successful intervention for preventing prolonged work disability in workers compensated for WRMSDs address workplace issues: physical and psychosocial demands at work, ability of the workers to fill these demands, work organization and support of the worker, and worker' beliefs and attitudes related to work. Successful intervention promotes collaboration, coordination between all actors and stakeholders involved in the process of rehabilitation. Strategies able to mobilize the employees, employers, insurers and health care providers are still needed to be implemented.
