Brief summary

Questionnaires/scales used to evaluate kinesiophobia in the literature are limited and are not specific to the upper extremity in existing scales. For this reason, the primary purpose and subject of the study is to develop a multi-factor kinesiophobia scale specific to shoulder problems. The study is an observational research. Participants will be interviewed twice in total. All primary and secondary outcomes will be assessed at the first meeting. The second come will be performed within 5-7 days after the first assessment. In the second come, only the new kinesiophobia scale that is intended to be developed will be applied.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Multidimensional Kinesiophobia Scale (To be developed)	Baseline of the study	It is desired to be developed to evaluate the fear of movement that occurs due to upper extremity injuries.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Visual Analog Scale	Baseline of the study	Assesses pain severity. It scores between 0-10 points. A high score indicates high pain intensity.
Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale	Baseline of the study	It consists of 17 items. Assesses the fear of movement. Total score is 68 points. A high score indicates high fear.
Demographic Data Form	Baseline of the study	This form was created by researchers and it consist of personal informations such as gender, marital status, education, age, body mass index, dominant and affected extremity, name of pathology,
