| Therapeutic Neuroscience Education | Behavioral | Therapeutic Neuroscience Education (TNE) is an intervention used by physiotherapists, which can be defined as a cognitive behavioral therapy method. By helping patients better understand the biological process that underlies their painful condition, it aims to achieve therapeutic effects such as reducing pain and the fear associated with musculoskeletal injuries and increasing movement and functionality. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnare | Total score ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate worse functional status | 10 min |
| Visual Analogue Scale | VAS is used to convert values that cannot be measured numerically, such as pain, into numerical values. Two end definitions of the parameter to be evaluated are written at the two ends of a 10 cm line and the patient is asked to mark this line indicating the appropriate level of their condition. In this study, 0='no pain' and 10='worst possible pain' were defined. | 5 min |
| Widespread Pain Index | The WPI evaluates the patient's pain in the last week in terms of 19 regions and is scored between 0-19. | 10 min |
| Symptom Severity Scale | The SSS is scored between 0-12. | 7 min |
| Brief Pain Inventory | This is a short and easy-to-apply inventory that can be used to assess pain, which consists of the two sections of Pain Severity (4 items) and Pain Interference (7 items). The total score in both categories ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating more pain and more pain causes more disability. | 7 min |
| Pain Catastrophizing Scale | The total score ranges from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating a high level of catastrophizing. | 10 min |
| Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Biopsychosocial Questionnaire | It includes 30 items that are answered using a 5-point Likert-type scale. Higher scores indicate a poor biopsychosocial status. | 10 min |
| Dynamic Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment |
