Abstract
Background Patient motivation is essential for the success of their rehabilitation. Apathy, a state of primary motivational deficiency, may therefore hinder physiotherapists’ interventions, such as those aimed at increasing patients’ physical activity. This study aims to examine the negative relationship between apathy and physical activity and to identify the factors that influence this relationship.
