Description
Tu and co-authors adapt a fear avoidance scale into simplified Chinese and test it. The scale gauges thought, feeling, and behavior sides of pain fear. A team of 330 patients with chronic muscle pain took part. They filled the scale twice, one week apart. Other pain and disability surveys were taken for comparison.
Internal consistency hit 0.920 on the alpha scale. Test-retest reliability reached 0.918 as well. A two-factor fit matched the original English version. Scores tied strongly to disability, catastrophizing, and anxiety marks. The authors call the Chinese version sound for clinic use.
