Abstract
Objective: The objectives of this study were to revise the Kinesiophobia Causes Scale (KCS) to make it suitable for Chinese cultural context and to verify its applicability in Chinese Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients.
Methods: TKA patients in Henan Province, China (N = 418, average age ≥64 years). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was performed on two samples randomly selected from the population (each N = 208). Psychometric properties, including the content, construct, predictive and concurrent validity was evaluated for KCS.
Results: The KCS scale showed desirable internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha: 0.927), test-retest reliability (0.936), and content validity (0.958). A seven-factor structure was revealed and confirmed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The area under the curve was 0.852. The optimal cut-off score for KCS was 3.68.
Conclusions: The developed Chinese version of KCS is both reliable and valid when applied in Chinese setting of TKA patients.
