La diffusion accessible des connaissances scientifiques sur la douleur joue un rôle fondamental dans la promotion de l’accès universel au savoir et sa compréhension par le grand public. L’objectif du présent article est de lever le voile sur l’importance cruciale de la vulgarisation scientifique dans le domaine de la douleur. Celui-ci analyse les défis et les avantages qui accompagnent la vulgarisation, tout en explorant diverses stratégies de communication scientifique. De plus, il propose des conseils pour faciliter la vulgarisation scientifique à tous les niveaux, ainsi que des recommandations visant à encourager son utilisation et sa propagation au sein de nos communautés scientifiques. Nous croyons fermement qu’avec l’application de ces recommandations et l’engagement actif des milieux de recherche, nous pouvons contribuer à une meilleure compréhension du phénomène de la douleur, à la démystification des préjugés qui l’entourent, et à l’amélioration des soins de santé dans ce domaine.



The number of publications on chronic pain and kinesiophobia by year available on PubMed (Medline) counts all publications dates for a citation as supplied by the publisher, e.g., print and electronic publication dates. Search query: (“kinesiophobia” OR “fear of movement”) AND “chronic pain”.
Flow diagram depicting the flow of information through the various stages of the review. This figure was created by using a customizable online tool flow diagram that adheres to PRISMA 2020 standards (Haddaway et al., 2020).
The relative distribution of chronic pain conditions in RCTs that were included (n = 27).
The relative distribution of included RCTs (n = 27) according to the following questions. (A) Was kinesiophobia a criterion for participants inclusion? (B) How is kinesiophobia measured? FABQ-PA, Fear avoidance beliefs questionnaire – physical activity scale; TSK, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia.
Characteristics of the RCT included, shown in chronological order.

Kinesiophobia is associated with pain intensity in people suffering from chronic pain. The number of publications highlighting this relationship has increased significantly in recent years, emphasizing the importance of investigating and synthesizing research evidence on this topic. The purpose of this scoping review was to answer the following questions: (1) What types of interventions have been or are currently being studied in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for the management of kinesiophobia in patients with chronic pain? (2) What chronic pain conditions are targeted by these interventions? (3) What assessment tools for kinesiophobia are used in these interventions? According to the studies reviewed, (1) physical exercise is the most commonly used approach for managing irrational fear of movement, (2) interventions for kinesiophobia have primarily focused on musculoskeletal pain conditions, particularly low back pain and neck pain, and (3) the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia is the most commonly used tool for measuring kinesiophobia. Future RCTs should consider multidisciplinary interventions that can help patients confront their irrational fear of movement while taking into account the patient’s personal biological, psychological, and social experiences with pain and kinesiophobia.

... Some researchers have suggested adding victimisation, disability, self-efficacy, and input from the interpersonal social environment, suggesting that the model should extend beyond pain-related fear and highlights the significance of concurrent, and often competing, goals [3,[7][8][9] (Fig 1). In the assessment and treatment of chronic musculoskeletal pain, kinesiophobia may be described and understood by a range of synonyms (e.g., "fear of movement", "fear of (re)injury", "avoidance behaviour", "avoidance hypervigilance", "behavioural performance", "pain-related fear with impaired physical performance", and "avoidance of activity") which tend to dominate the research landscape [10][11][12]. Kinesiophobia is an important mediator of new and prolonged chronic pain and disability, and as such is an important element of the FA paradigm; rates are estimated at 51-72% of people with chronic pain [10,13]. Kinesiophobia presents a major challenge to successful physical rehabilitation; unchecked, it may contribute to the development of disuse syndrome, which is associated with additional physical and psychosocial impacts such as depression, muscle atrophy, and medication misuse [14]. ...
