Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is aimed to carry out the Turkish version validity and reliability of the Low Back Activity Confidence Scale.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Because self-efficacy represents a situation-specific construct and not a general or personality construct, confidence in performing one type of activity can differ significantly from confidence in performing other actions, all of which can contribute to a common outcome. Optimally, self-efficacy measures are tailored to assess individuals' confidence in exhibiting key behaviors related to recovery or alleviation from their own health condition or condition. Therefore, self-efficacy scales involve measuring an individual's confidence in each unique behavior or set of behaviors. Self-efficacy also explained more discomfort than pain intensity in patients with chronic pain. In addition, with appropriate insight and assessment, self-efficacy can perhaps be developed more effectively or appropriately than other non-modifiable (e.g. demographics) or less easily modifiable factors, such as fear beliefs and catastrophic thinking. Although several instruments have been developed to assess self-efficacy in low back pain, they do not address relevant functional and self-regulatory behaviors in the post-intervention clinical population. Therefore, the Low Back Activity Confidence Scale (LoBACS) was created to assess various forms of self-efficacy potentially related to low back pain. LoBACS is general, non-work-specific, but self-efficacy for backward functional activities such as standing, carrying, and pushing, self-regulation or self-control to manage one's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to perform or avoid activities that may contribute to back health. and self-efficacy to do regular exercise, a core activity in a range of therapeutic interventions for low back pain. There is no Turkish version and validity study of LoBACS. This study is aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of LoBACS. The study of validity and reliability is planned with 104 individuals with low back pain. The sociodemographic characteristics of the individuals will be questioned by the investigators and then the patients will be evaluated with LoBACS, International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Back Pain Functional Scale (BPFS), Waddell Disability Index (WDI), Modified Oswestry Disability Index (MODI), Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ), Short Form-36 (SF-36), Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The test-retest will be re-administered by face-to-face interview technique after 1 week. The results will be analyzed using the SPSS version 22.0 computer package program.
