* TSK-11, Tampa Scale Kinesiophobia. Frequency, percentage (%) and Chi-squared test (χ2) were utilized. TSK-11 category were divided as follows: (1) 11 to 17 points: no fear of movement, (2) 18 to 24 points: slight fear of movement, (3) 25 to 31 points: moderate fear of movement, (4) 32 to 38 points: severe fear of movement, (5) 39 to 44 points: máximum fear of movement. †, TSK-11 scores, Median ± interquartile range, range (min–max) and Mann–Whitney U test were used. In all the analyses, p < 0.05 (with a 95% confidence interval) was considered statistically significant (bold).
