“…Moreover, a training protocol with a cognitive-behavioral approach (e.g., the inclusion of coping strategies) may produce more benefits among military personnel with CNSNP-K in order to reduce their kinesiophobia. In fact, a recent study has shown that a physical training program combined with a cognitive-behavioral treatment can reduce work-related fear-avoidance beliefs in patients with musculoskeletal pain including neck pain [85]. Future studies that include therapeutic education based on a cognitive-behavioral approach with a cervical muscle training program are necessary.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, no research has investigated the relationship between mindfulness skills and kinesiophobia, which is effective for the physical disability related to pain and pain intensity (Gutke, Lundberg, Östgaard, & Öberg, 2010); nonetheless in the context of the fear-avoidance model, Jay et al (2016) found that performing 10 weeks of physical-cognitive mindfulness intervention resulted in the reduction of fear-avoidance beliefs contributing to chronic pain. Finally, Schütze, Rees, Preece, and Schütze 2010, studying a sample of patients with chronic pain, reported that lower mindfulness entailed higher scores in pain catastrophizing and pain-related fear and alertness.…”

health psychology report • 9 original article background Although the results obtained for mindfulness-based treatments are promising, there is limited information concerning the role of different dimensions of mindfulness in the undesirable outcomes related to chronic pain such as physical pain and catastrophizing, pain severity, kinesiophobia and disability. Therefore, the objective of this present research was to examine the relationship between facets of mindfulness and the mentioned outcomes in individuals with musculoskeletal pain (MSP), including an extensive population of patients. participants and procedure In a cross-sectional research, 200 patients with chronic MSP were selected from northern Iran by the consecutive sampling method and were assessed through the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), 24-item Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ-24), 17-item Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-17), and the Coping Strategies Questionnaire-Catastrophizing subscale (CSQ-CAT). results Results were obtained via multivariate hierarchical regression analyses after adjusting for the effects of demographic variables, revealing that higher scores in the Observing subscale can predict lower scores in the VAS. Moreover, higher scores in the Describing subscale predict higher scores in VAS, CSQ-CAT and TSK-17; higher scores in Acting with Awareness predict lower scores in VAS and CSQ-CAT; higher scores in Non-judging predict lower scores in VAS, RMDQ-24 and TSK-17; finally, higher scores in Non-reactivity predict higher scores in RMDQ-24 and TSK-17. conclusions All factors existing in mindfulness are associated to MSP after controlling for certain undesirable outcomes. It seems that mindfulness interventions can potentially result in clinical improvement of patients suffering from chronic musculoskeletal pain.

Objectives This study evaluates the Danish national Job & Body campaign on beliefs about musculoskeletal pain and work.Methods Initiated in 2011, a national campaign in Denmark targeted public-sector employees with a mixture of networking activities, workplace visits, and a mass media outreach with topics related to job and body (eg, musculoskeletal pain, movement and work) and creating balance between demands at work and physical capacity. At baseline (2011) and at four time points until the end of 2014, random cross-sectional samples of ≥1000 representative public-sector employees (total N=5012) replied to eight questions concerning beliefs about musculoskeletal pain and work. Changes over time were modelled using general linear models (averaged for all questions, 0-100 points, where 0 is completely negative and 100 completely positive) and logistic regression analyses (for the single questions) controlling for age, gender and a number of work-related factors.Results At the last follow-up in 2014, 17.3% of public-sector employees were familiar with the campaign.Beliefs about musculoskeletal pain and work were 3.4 points (95% CI 2.4-4.3) higher than at baseline. For the single questions, 4 out of 8 showed improved odds for more positive beliefs [odds ratios (OR) of 1.28-1.89].Conclusion During follow-up of the national campaign, beliefs about musculoskeletal pain and work were more positive among public-sector employees in Denmark. Due to the time-wise mixture of several campaign activities, the isolated effect of each component could not be disentangled. Whether changes in health occurred remain unknown.
