Fear Avoidance Components Scale (FACS) PRE
The FACS scale comprehensively assesses the presence of fear avoidance beliefs and attitudes in people with painful medical conditions. The FACS instructions ask participants to reflect on past painful experiences, and to indicate the degree to which these experiences influence on their activity. There are 20 thoughts or feelings related to avoidance, on 6-point scales with the end points (0) completely disagree and (5) completely agree. The FACS yields a total score between 0, best score, and 100, worst score.

European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) PRE
EQ-5D is a standardized instrument for measuring generic health status. The EQ-5D questionnaire has two components: health state description and evaluation. In the description part, health status is measured in terms of five dimensions (5D); mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Mobility dimension asks about the person's walking ability. Self-care dimension asks about the ability to wash or dress by oneself, and usual activities dimension measures performance in "work, study, housework, family or leisure activities". In pain/discomfort dimension, it asks how much pain or discomfort they have, and in anxiety/depression dimension, it asks how anxious or depressed they are. Each dimension is rated in 5 levels from "I have no problem with..." to "I am unable to..."

Lower Limb Functional Index (LLFI) PRE
The LLFI is an index designed for assessing the functional capacity of the lower limbs with a combination of constructs that includes body functions, body structures, activities and participation, and environmental factors. The LLFI has 25 phrases as items and participants have to select which ones they identify with. The final score is calculated with the following formula: 100 - (number of sentences chosen x 4). The LLFI yields a total score (between 100, best score, and 0, worst score).
