“…Significantly, the study revealed that a considerable portion of participants reported experiencing fear of movement (kinesiophobia) as well as exercise addiction. Previous research on kinesiophobia among athletes has indicated that those who have sustained sports injuries tend to exhibit higher levels of this fear [30]. Furthermore, there is evidence suggesting that athletes might be more susceptible to exercise addiction [12,13,14].…”

Background and Study Aim. Since athletes tend to be addicted to exercise, they are at a higher risk of experiencing sports injuries compared to others. Exercise addiction and kinesiophobia, which is the fear of (re)injury and movement after an injury, are distinct but related concepts for athletes. It has been stated that mindfulness helps individuals to diminish their kinesiophobia. However, little is known about the relationship between exercise addiction, kinesiophobia, and mindfulness among athletes. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate kinesiophobia, exercise addiction, and mindfulness among athletes and to examine the effect of certain variables on these three concepts. Material and Methods. The sample of the study consisted of 313 athletes over the age of 18. Participants were included in the study on a voluntary basis, using the convenience sampling method. Study data were collected with the 'Demographic Form', the 'Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia', and the 'Exercise Addiction Scale'. Results. The study discovered that national athletes exhibited statistically higher levels of exercise addiction compared to non-national athletes. Similarly, athletes suffering from chronic pain showed higher exercise addiction scores than those without chronic pain. Furthermore, athletes who had sustained sports injuries demonstrated higher exercise addiction levels compared to those who had not. It was also determined that athletes with pain or movement limitations due to sports injuries exhibited increased levels of kinesiophobia compared to those without such limitations. In addition, athletes with chronic pain reported higher levels of kinesiophobia compared to their counterparts without chronic pain. Female athletes were found to have higher levels of mindful awareness compared to male athletes. Additionally, when analyzing the relationship between these three parameters, a negative correlation was observed between kinesiophobia and mindfulness among athletes. Conclusions. While kinesiophobia and exercise addiction are not directly related, there is a negative relationship between kinesiophobia and mindfulness. Furthermore, chronic pain and limitations in movement after a sports injury are identified as risk factors for kinesiophobia. Additionally, being a national athlete, experiencing chronic pain, and sustaining sports injuries are considered risk factors for exercise addiction.

“…Perrot vd., kas-iskelet sistemi ağrısı tanısı ile fizik tedavi alan bireylerdeki hareket korkusunu incelediklerinde; yaşı ileri olanların (50 yaş ve üzeri), daha az fiziksel aktivitede bulunanların, daha fazla ağrı hissedenlerin ve ağrıyı daha az kabullenenlerin daha yüksek seviyede hareket korkusu yaşadıklarını tespit etmiştir. 11 Cinsiyetin 23 daha yüksekte olması sağlıklı grup ile alt ekstremite yaralanması geçiren gruplar arasında hareket korkusu sonuçlarında farkın oluşmamasını sağlamış olabilir. Çünkü aktivite seviyesi orta ya da düşük seviyede olan bireylerin ağrıya verebilecekleri yanıtın 'ağrıdan kaçınma' olması beklenirken 24 , elit düzeydeki sporcuların aynı duruma 'kaçınmaya dayanma' cevabı vermeleri beklenmektedir.…”

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, elit erkek futbolcularda alt ekstremite yaralanması sonrası, fiziksel aktiflikte yetersizlik düzeyindeki, hareket korkusu davranışındaki ve egzersiz öz yeterliliğindeki değişimi incelemek; bu faktörlerin yaralanma dönemine göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini belirlemek idi. Yöntem: Kliniğimize başvuran, elit erkek futbolcular örneklem grubunu oluşturdu. Sağlıklı ve alt ekstremite yaralanması geçiren erkek futbolculara Fiziksel Aktiflikte Yetersizlik Ölçeği Kısa Form-10, Tampa Kinezyofobi Ölçeği ve Egzersiz Öz Yeterlilik Ölçeği uygulandı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya 56 erkek futbolcu (yaş: 19,5±0,3 yıl; vücut kütle indeksi: 21,5±0,2 kg/m 2 ) dahil edildi. Futbolcuların düzenli antrenman süresi 5±0,1 gün/hafta ve 89,8±2,3 dakika/seans olarak hesaplandı. Herhangi bir kas-iskelet sistemi yaralanması olmayan 19 futbolcu (Grupsağlam) var iken yaralanma geçiren 37 futbolcu (Grup akut=12; Grup subakut=10; Gruppersistan=15) vardı. Yaralanma geçiren gruplardaki futbolcuların Fiziksel Aktiflikte Yetersizlik Ölçeği sonuçlarının daha yüksek olduğu ve Grupsağlam ile fark oluşturduğu saptandı (p˂0,05). Fakat, Tampa Kinezyofobi Ölçeği ve Egzersiz Öz Yeterlilik Ölçeği sonuçlarında gruplar arasında fark belirlenmedi (p˃0,05). Yaralanma geçirmiş olan futbolcularda, bu faktörlerin yaralanma dönemine göre göre farklılık göstermediği bulundu (p˃0,05). Sonuç: Elit erkek futbolcularda cerrahi gerektirmeyen alt ekstremite yaralanması sonrası, fiziksel aktiflikte yetersizliği gözlenmiş ancak hareket korkusu davranışında ve egzersiz öz yeterliliğinde değişim olmamıştır.

Methods: Elite male footballers, who applied to our clinic formed the sample group. Male football players who were found to be healthy and had lower extremity injuries were applied The Disablement in the Physically Active Scale, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale and Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale. Results: Fifty-six male footballers (age: 19.5±0.3 years; body mass index: 21.5±0.2 kg/m 2 ) were included in the study. Regular training time is calculated as 5±0.1 days/week and 89.8±2.3 minutes/session. There are 19 players (Grouphealthy) healthy. There are 37 players (Groupacute=12; Groupsubacute=10; Grouppersistent=15) suffered injury. It was found that the results of The Disablement in the Physically Active Scale of the footballers in the injured groups was higher and made a difference with the Grouphealthy (p˂0.05). However, there was no difference between the groups in the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale and Exercise SelfEfficacy Scale (p˃0.05). It was found that these factors are...

OBJECTIVES: To (1) compare activity-related psychological factors between individuals with and without knee conditions, and (2) assess associations between these factors and objective measures of function in individuals with knee conditions. DESIGN: A priori registered systematic review with meta-analysis. LITERATURE SEARCH: MEDLINE-Ovid, Embase-Ovid, Scopus-Elsevier, CINAHL-EBSCO, SPORTDiscus-EBSCO, and Cochrane Library were searched to May 27, 2022. STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA: We included peer-reviewed primary data studies (observational and experimental) of human participants with and without knee conditions reporting knee confidence, fear of movement/avoidance beliefs, and/or psychological readiness to return to sport (RTS) or reporting correlations between these factors and objective measures of function in knee conditions. DATA SYNTHESIS: Where possible, data were pooled by knee conditions, otherwise performed narrative syntheses. The Downs and Black checklist assessed the methodological quality of the included studies. RESULTS: Forty studies (3546 participants with knee conditions; 616 participants without knee conditions) were included. There was very low–certainty evidence of higher fear of movement in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (standardized mean difference [SMD], 0.46; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.41, 0.52), but not in individuals with patellofemoral pain (SMD, 0.66; 95% CI: −7.98, 9.29) when compared with those without knee conditions. There was very low–certainty evidence of no differences in psychological readiness to RTS after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (SMD, −1.14; 95% CI: −2.97, 0.70) compared to no knee condition, and negligible to weak positive correlations between psychological readiness to RTS and objective measures of function. CONCLUSION: There was very low–certainty evidence of higher fear of movement in individuals with knee osteoarthritis compared to those without, and very low–certainty evidence of no correlations between these factors and objective measures of function following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
