Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Self-perceived workability.

    Self-perceived workability. This will be assessed using the self-rated questionnaire Work Ability Index, which is a reliable and valid questionnaire addressing a persons perceived work capacity. By complementing outcome variables as Days of sick leave/activity compensation with Work Ability Index we will minimize the risk of a type II-error due to local labor market conditions.

    Baseline, After intervention (16 weeks), 12 month

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Health related quality of life

    Baseline, After intervention (16 weeks), 12 month

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Self-efficacy in relation to pain

    Baseline, After intervention (16 weeks), 12 month

  • Pain intensity

    Baseline, after intervention (16 weeks), 12 month

Study Arms (2)

Web-prog, followed by CBT + PT

EXPERIMENTAL

This arm of the single system experimental design starts with a baseline phase of 8 weeks where the subjects are introduced into to the interactive web-based self-help program. The baseline-period is followed by the intervention period which consists of a continued use of the interactive web-based self-help program, now with with cognitive behavioral therapy coaching in combination with individually tailored physiotherapy according to the person's needs for 16 weeks.

Behavioral: Base, followed by Web + CBT + PT
