In musculoskeletal pain (MSP), pain duration, disability, and mental health relate to how a person engages in daily activities. The self-reporting questionnaire Activity Patterns Scale (APS) assesses these activity patterns and their subscales: Pacing (Pacing to increase activity levels,Pacing to conserve energy for valued activities,Pacing to reduce pain); Avoidance (Pain avoidance,Activity avoidance); Pacing (Excessive persistence, Task-contingent persistence, Pain-contingent persistence). This investigation translated the APS into German and estimated its internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and construct validity.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates chronic pain's impact in Germany, focusing on the early detection using two versions of the avoidance-endurance fast screen (AEFS) to assess pain-related behavior and psychological traits like resilience and self-compassion.
- - Conducted with a healthy group of 278 people occasionally experiencing pain, the analysis revealed a moderate agreement between the two AEFS versions and noted differences in pain persistence and psychological responses.
- - The findings suggest that while the AEFS versions have strong agreement, using the one-level version may lead to overestimating pain endurance behaviors, indicating a need for future research to refine assessment cut-offs.

Objectives: The Avoidance-Endurance Fast-Screen (AEFS) is a 9-item self-report questionnaire that classifies patients with back pain into 4 activity-related subgroups, based on the Avoidance-Endurance Model of pain. The objective of this study was to translate the AEFS into Danish and investigate its discriminative abilities in a large, diverse patient sample.
Materials And Methods: A total of 851 specialist care-seeking patients with severe chronic pain conditions participated in this cross-sectional study.
Psychosocial subgroups in high-performance athletes with low back pain: eustress-endurance is most frequent, distress-endurance most problematic!

Objectives: In non-athletes, fear-avoidance and endurance-related pain responses appear to influence the development and maintenance of low back pain (LBP). The avoidance-endurance model (AEM) postulates three dysfunctional pain response patterns that are associated with poorer pain outcomes. Whether comparable relationships are present in athletes is currently unclear.
