Multidisciplinary interventions: review of studies of return to work after rehabilitation for low back pain

Internalizing and externalizing problems in childhood and adolescence as predictors of work incapacity in young adulthood

Journal ArticleDOI

Are self-report of disability pension and long-term sickness absence accurate? Comparisons of self-reported interview data with national register data in a Swedish twin cohort

TL;DR: The same degree of twin similarity was found for truthful self-report of DP and LTSA in both monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs, thus, the response style was not influenced by genetic factors and heritability estimates would not be biased.
