  1. PROMIS = Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (0-100), with higher numbers indicating higher levels of physical functioning
  2. PSEQ = 10-item Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (0 to 60), with higher numbers indicating higher pain self-efficacy
  3. PHQ-9 = 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (0 to 27), with higher numbers indicating higher depressive symptoms
  4. TSK-13 = 13-item Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (13 to 52), with higher numbers indicating higher fear of movement
