Journal ArticleDOI
837 the impact of adolescent chronic pain on functioning: disentangling the complex role of anxiety
TL;DR: The German version of the TSK has been shown to be a reliable and valid measure for the assessment of fear of movement/(re)injury and the role of kinesiophobia as a significant predictor of pain-related disability was confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
975 comparing the role of psychological flexibility and traditional pain management coping strategies in chronic pain treatment outcomes

Journal ArticleDOI
Model validation and structural equation modeling: a reply to Ward and Thorn.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability and predictive utility of a dual component model of acceptance in chronic pain
TL;DR: Reliability and predictive utility of a dual component model of acceptance in chronic pain and its applications in management of chronic pain are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
943 a systematic review of technology‐assisted behaviour change for the management of chronic health conditions including pain
