| Summary: | Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the musculoskeletal health status, pain acceptance, and coping strategies of individuals with chronic pain and physical disabilities and compare them with control group. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study included a total of 88 participants, divided into two groups: the study group (individuals with chronic pain and physical disabilities; n=44) and the control group (individuals with chronic pain but without disabilities; n=44). Participants' musculoskeletal health was assessed using the Musculoskeletal Health Questionnaire (MHQ), pain acceptance using the Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ), and coping strategies were evaluated using the COPE inventory. Results: Significant differences were observed between the groups in terms of MHQ scores and COPE scores (p0.05). Discussion: This results emphasizes the need for a careful assessment of coping strategies in individuals with chronic pain and physical disabilities in interdisciplinary chronic pain management programs, as well as the inclusion of personalized coping strategies in the intervention program. |
