Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Turkish Pain Behaviour Scale (PaBS)
The Turkish Pain Behaviour Scale (PaBS) is a clinician-rated observational measure used to assess the presence and severity of pain behaviors during five standardized physical performance tests. Observed behaviors include sighing, breath-holding, grimacing, guarding, rubbing, and antalgic gait. For each physical performance test, the presence or absence of individual behaviors is recorded and the overall severity of observed pain behavior is rated from 0 to 3. The total PaBS severity score ranges from 0 to 15, with higher scores indicating greater severity of observed pain behaviors. Interrater reliability was evaluated using ratings from two independent raters during the first testing session, and intrarater reliability was evaluated using ratings from the same rater across two testing sessions.

Adults With Chronic Nonspecific Low Back Pain

A total of 102 adults aged 18-55 years with chronic nonspecific low back pain lasting more than 3 months were included in the psychometric validation study. Participants underwent standardized clinical, self-report, and physical performance assessments during two testing sessions separated by approximately one week.

Other: Turkish Pain Behaviour Scale Assessment

Interventions

Turkish Pain Behaviour Scale AssessmentOther

Participants completed self-report measures of pain intensity and characteristics, disability, and fear-avoidance beliefs and performed five standardized physical performance tests: repeated trunk flexion, repeated sit-to-stand, Timed Up and Go, loaded reach, and 50-foot walk. During the first testing session, two independent physiotherapists simultaneously assessed the presence and severity of pain behaviors using the Turkish Pain Behaviour Scale (PaBS). For intrarater reliability, one rater repeated the PaBS assessment during a second testing session approximately one week later. No therapeutic intervention was administered as part of the study assessments.

Study Population

Adults with chronic nonspecific low back pain were recruited using a non-probabilistic sampling strategy from physical therapy and rehabilitation outpatient clinics of private hospitals and a university-based physiotherapy and rehabilitation education and research laboratory. Eligible participants were aged 18-55 years and had chronic nonspecific low back pain lasting longer than 3 months.
