“…Various systematic reviews have shown only marginal to weak associations between general selfreport measures assessing fear of movement and the actual behaviour 14,35,46 . In Eva's case, there was a discrepancy between the total scores on the generic self-report measures, indicating a low level of fear of movement (see TABLE 1), and the information gathered during the interview and behavioural assessment, indicating the presence of harm beliefs and avoidance behaviour (see Here, we discuss the individual item-based analysis of the PHODA-SeV, and how it helped our understanding on the context-dependency of Eva's perceived harmfulness.…”

“…For example, a patient may disclose to you that she avoids certain painful activities, while persisting with other activities even though the activities are painful. Another patient may avoid specific behaviours during a behavioural assessment, despite a low score on the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK)) 14,35,46 that you might reasonably interpret as indicating low fear of movement.…”

Background: Generic self-report measures do not reflect the complexity of a person's pain-related behaviour. Since variations in a person's fear of movement and avoidance behaviour may arise from contextual and motivational factors, a person-centred evaluation is required-addressing the cognitions, emotions, motivation and actual behaviour of the person.Clinical Question: Most musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians will recognise that different people with chronic pain have very different patterns of fear and avoidance behaviour. However, an important remaining question for clinicians is "how can I identify and reconcile discrepancies in fear of movement and avoidance behaviour observed in the same person, and adapt my management accordingly?". Key Results:We frame a clinical case of a patient with persistent low back pain to illustrate the key pieces of information that clinicians may consider in a person-centred evaluation (i.e., patient interview, self-report measures and behavioural assessment) when working with patients to manage fear of movement and avoidance behaviour.Clinical Application: Understanding the discrepancies in a person's fear of movement and avoidance behaviour is essential for musculoskeletal rehabilitation clinicians, as they work in partnership with patients to guide tailored approaches to changing behaviours.

“…Chronic pain can affect physical performance by limiting the functional activities, which also contributes to other symptoms such as anxiety and depression ( Tanaka et al, 2019 ; Sakulsriprasert, Vachalathiti & Kingcha, 2021 ). The interplay between chronic pain, anxiety, and depression can further worsen the decline in physical function ( Tanaka et al, 2019 ; Sakulsriprasert, Vachalathiti & Kingcha, 2021 ; Matheve et al, 2022 ). In addition, impairment in the physical performance of individuals with chronic pain may include modifications in their ability to perform physical tasks, including aerobic activities, strength, and flexibility ( Taylor, Kotlyar & Flores, 2021 ; Della Corte et al, 2020 ; Tanaka et al, 2019 ; Sakulsriprasert, Vachalathiti & Kingcha, 2021 ; Matheve et al, 2022 ; Evans et al, 2021 ).…”

Background Endometriosis is a condition of the female reproductive system associated with pelvic pain. Chronic pain can affect physical performance by limiting the functional activities, thus, it is hypothesized that women with endometriosis may also present decreased functional capacity, decreased strength, and mobility. The objective of this study is to compare physical performance in women with and without endometriosis. Methods This is a cross-sectional study composed of 115 women equally divided into two groups: the endometriosis group (EG), composed of women with a confirmed diagnosis of the disease by magnetic resonance imaging, and the comparator group (CG), consisting of women without suspicion of the disease. Physical performance (dependent variable) was assessed using hand dynamometry, the 6-min walk test (6MWT), gait speed, and the chair stands test. CG participants performed the tests during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Descriptive statistics, unpaired t-tests, and chi-square tests were used to describe and compare the groups. Multiple linear regression tested the associations adjusted for covariates (age, income, education, age at menarche, and body mass index). Results The EG had worse gait speed (mean difference: −0.11; 95% CI: [−0.18 to −0.04]), weaker grip strength (mean difference: −3.32; 95% CI: [−5.30 to −1.33]), shorter distance covered in the 6MWT (mean difference: −83.46; 95% CI: [−121.38 to −45.53]), and a lower number of repetitions in the chair stands test (mean difference: −8.44; 95% CI: [−10.64 to −6.25]) than the CG, even after adjusting for covariates. Conclusion Grip strength, lower limb strength, mobility, and functional capacity were worse in women diagnosed with endometriosis. Women with endometriosis should be encouraged to engage in physical exercise, adopt healthy lifestyle habits, and participate in rehabilitation activities to control pain, with the aim of reducing functional impairments.
