Brief summary

Physiotherapy treatment of musculoskeletal injuries should be performed following the main clinical guidelines of person-centered care. Patients' perception of the abilities and facilities provided by physiotherapists boost a convenient therapeutic relationship. This relation is linked with more satisfaction and adherence during the treatment, as well as credibility and expectancy of the patient related to the treatment. Thus, Credibility and Expectancy questionnaire is normally used to assess that point. CEQ presents good psychometric properties when used in Physisiotherapy interventions, but there is not a spanish version of this questionaire.

Interventions

OTHERValidation CEQ

In initial assessment, EQ-5D-5L and HADS questionnaires were completed. After sessions 1 and 2, CEQ and WAI-S were filled. Finally, EQ-5D-5L was completed before the fourth session.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Content validity	During the intervention: Session 1	Credibility and Expectancy questionnaire (CEQ) must be completed, while registering the time used and the quality and the reading comprehension.
Structural validity	During the intervention: session 1 and 2 treatment	Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA) were performed. For EFA Kaiser criterion \>0.70 will be acceptable. For CFA, goodness of fit index and comparative fit index were calculated, where values up to 0.90 were acceptable.
Reliability	During the intervention.	Credibility and Expectancy questionnaire (CEQ) reliability will be analised through internal consistency (alpha Cronbach \> 0.70 recomended)) and test-retest (intraclass correlation coeficient \>0.70 acceptable).
Hypotheses testing for construct validity	During the intervention.	Comparing CEQ with other measurement instruments.
