Summary
This study looked at 52 amateur volleyball players aged 18-30 to see if fear of movement (kinesiophobia) differs between men and women. Researchers measured fear of re-injury, fatigue, and sleep quality using questionnaires. The goal was to understand how this fear might affect athletes' physical activity and recovery, without testing any treatment.
