First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study adapted and tested a questionnaire called the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia for people with pelvic pain (TSK-PP). Researchers wanted to see if it reliably measures fear of movement in this group. 170 adults with chronic pelvic pain filled out the questionnaire and other surveys at one time point. No treatments were given; the goal was to validate the tool for future research and clinical use.

What could go wrong
