Less is more: reliability and measurement error for three versions of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-11, TSK-13, and TSK-17) in patients with high-impact chronic pain.

Abstract

The Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) is a valid and reliable tool to assess somatic focus and activity avoidance in patients. Currently, the test-retest reliability and measurement error for the Danish version is unknown. The aim of the study was to determine standard error of measurement (SEM) and smallest detectable change (SDC) for three Danish lengths of the TSK in patients with chronic pain.
