“…Each item can be scored from 0 to 10, resulting in a total score ranging from −70 to 70. A higher score indicates more facilitators and/or fewer barriers 23,24 . The IPAQ-SF was used to assess self-reported physical activity levels by inquiring the number of days and the average time spent engaging in vigorous and moderate activities and walking.…”

Objectives: This study aimed to determine physical activity levels and understand the factors influencing an active lifestyle among patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). Methods: Ninety-seven patients participated in this multicentric study. Physical activity levels were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF). The Inflammatory Arthritis Facilitators and Barriers (IFAB) questionnaire was used to evaluate perceived barriers and facilitators to physical activity. Results: Forty-six patients were physically inactive and the rest of them were moderately active. Commonly identified barriers included a lack of motivation, fatigue, and pain. Conversely, knowledge of the health and mood benefits for physical activity emerged as a key motivator. Patients with better scores on facilitators and lower scores on barriers exhibited higher physical activity levels (p < 0.05). Notably, a high level of perceived facilitators of physical activity (odds ratio [OR]: 1.02; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00 – 1.05) and reduced pain (OR: 0.81; 95% CI: 0.69 – 0.95) were linked to an active lifestyle. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the role of motivation and awareness of the benefits of physical activity for health and mood in driving physical activity for patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome. Tailored physical activity programs that address psychological aspects and disease-related pain, and fatigue should be designed to counter sedentary lifestyles in pSS patients.

Identifying the barriers to physical activity (PA) is important for comprehensive management strategies to decrease physical inactivity. This study aimed to translate and cross-culturally adapt the Self-Perceived Barriers for Physical Activity Scale (SPBPA) into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties. One-hundred fifty-two young and middle-aged adults (mean age of 33.3 ± 12.66 years) were included. Within a 5-to-15-day period after the first assessment, the participants completed the Turkish version of SPBPA (SPBPA-T) to evaluate test-retest reliability. Cronbach’s alpha (α) was used to assess internal consistency. The correlation between the SPBPA-T and Physical Activity Barriers Questionnaire (PABQ) and Short Form-12 (SF-12) was determined to check the validity. The SPBPA-T had a strong internal consistency (α = .83) and test-retest reliability (ICC2,1 = .90). There was a strong correlation between PABQ and SPBPA-T (r = 0.709; p < .0001), indicating strong construct validity. The convergent validity of SPBPA-T was confirmed with the mental component of SF-12 (r = −.228; p < .0001). There was no floor or ceiling effect. The questionnaire had a 1.083 SEM value and its MDC was 3.00 points. The SPBPA-T is semantically and linguistically adequate and has strong internal validity and test-retest reliability to determine the self-perceived barriers to PA among Turkish-speaking young adults.
