Spanish Version of Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire in Patients With Musculoskeletal Injuries

Translation, Adaptation and Valitation of the Spanish Version of Credibility and Expectancy Questionnaire in Patiens With Musculoskeletal Injuries

Physiotherapy treatment of musculoskeletal injuries should be performed following the main clinical guidelines of person-centered care. Patients' perception of the abilities and facilities provided by physiotherapists boost a convenient therapeutic relationship. This relation is linked with more satisfaction and adherence during the treatment, as well as credibility and expectancy of the patient related to the treatment. Thus, Credibility and Expectancy questionnaire is normally used to assess that point.
