Inclusion criteria: Individuals who have one of the following diagnostic terms “Anterior shoulder pain”; “Subacromial Impingement Syndrome”; “Subacromial Impingement Syndrome”; “Painful shoulder”; “Shoulder Tendinitis” or specific rotator cuff tendonitis; “Subacromial bursitis” or “Subdeltoid bursitis” in the diagnostic field; Both sexes; Age from 18 years old; Shoulder pain for more than 12 weeks; 3 or more positive findings in the “Painful arch in flexion or abduction” tests; “Neer”; “Hawkins-Kennedy Test”; “pain on resisted external humeral rotation” or “Jobe's Test”
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Previous history of shoulder surgery or injuries caused by external forces; full-thickness tear of the rotator cuff as evidenced by imaging (US or MRI); shoulder instability; adhesive capsulitis; or if they are involved in cognitive-behavioral and cognitive-functional therapy due to conflicting literature on possible changes in self-efficacy in this population; Cardiovascular and neurological disorders including cervical and arm nerve entrapment syndromes; pregnant women; those who are unable to perform the required clinical assessment tasks, answer the questionnaires, or attend the required assessment and intervention sessions
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We will assess shoulder disability using the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index version Brazil (SPADI-Br), which is composed of 13 items divided into subscales of pain (5 items) and disability (8 items), in which a higher score high indicates worse shoulder function. A difference between groups of 13.2 points in SPADI is expected (Santello et al., 2020). The significance level was set at 0.05.;We will assess self-efficacy using the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ-10), which has 10 items, with a total score ranging from 0 to 60, with higher scores indicating high self-efficacy. A difference of 8.5 points is expected on the PSEQ-10 (Maughan et al., 2010). The significance level was set at 0.05. | — |

|---|---|
| We will assess self-regulation using the Short Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SSRQ). Patients with chronic shoulder pain who receive self-efficacy strategies associated with strengthening exercises and manual therapy are expected to present, immediately after the intervention, 6 and 12 months after randomization, an improvement in self-regulation. The significance level was set at 0.05.;We will assess the intensity of pain using the Numerical Rating Pain Scale (NRPS). Patients with chronic shoulder pain who receive self-efficacy strategies associated with strengthening exercises and manual therapy are expected to present, immediately after the intervention, 6 and 12 months after randomization, a greater reduction in pain intensity. The significance level was set at 0.05.;We will assess quality of life using the Euroqol 5 dimensions (EQ-5D-3L) and the 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12). Patients with chronic shoulder pain who receive self-efficacy strategies associated with strengthening exercises and manual therapy are expected to present, immediately after the intervention, 6 and 12 months after randomization, an improvement in their quality of life. The significance level was set at 0.05.;We will assess the number of new medical consultations related to shoulder pain through a simple question, “How many times did you visit the doctor due to shoulder pain?”. Patients with chronic shoulder pain who receive self-efficacy strategies associated with strengthening exercises and manual therapy are expected to present, immediately after the intervention, 6 and 12 months after randomization, a decrease in the number of new medical appointments due to shoulder pain shoulder. The significance level was set at 0.05.;We will assess analgesic use for shoulder pain by asking a simple question, “How often do you use analgesics for shoulder pain?”. Patients with chronic shoulder pain who receive self-efficacy strategies associated with strengthening exercises and manual ther | — |
