In Chronic Neck Pain; Kinesiophobia, Neck Awareness Examination of Cognitive and Cognitive Functions at Different Levels of Functionality

Chronic neck pain is a common problem in our society. With the Neck Disability Index, we can classify the functional status of individuals with chronic neck pain as "no restriction, mildly limited, moderately limited, severely restricted, completely limited". In this study, the difference between cognitive functions, kinesiophobia and neck awareness between those who have a functional status according to the Neck Disability Index and those whose functional status is "slightly limited-moderately restricted" and those who are "severely limited-totally limited" will be investigated with questionnaires and evaluations. The study will provide information about whether there is a difference between individuals with chronic neck pain regarding cognitive functions, kinesiophobia and neck awareness according to their functional status. Thus, it will contribute to the literature to provide clinicians with awareness about the functionality levels in chronic neck pain and to consider individuals within this framework.
