Abstract
Self-efficacy (SE), activity-related fear, and pain are interrelated concepts that are significant individual predictors of disability in patients with lower back pain (LBP). Identification of patient subgroups involving these variables will refine our understanding of how they interact to affect treatment outcomes. The purpose of this study was to preliminarily validate a classification system for patients with postacute LBP based on SE, fear, and pain.
