| Abstrakt: | Context: Low back pain ( LBP) is a serious health problem, both in the general population as well as in athletes. Research has shown that psychosocial aspects, such as dysfunctional pain responses, play a significant role in the chroni fication of LBP. Recent research supports the relevance of the multidisciplinary concept of body image in the interpretation of LBP. Objective: To examine the differences in 2 psychosocial aspects, body image and pain responses, between athletes and nonathletes with LBP. Design: Cross - sectional design. Setting: The questionnaires were distributed in the course of LBP treatment . Participants. Data from 163 athletes (mean age = 28 .69 [ 9 . 61 y ) and 75 nonathletes (mean age = 39 . 34 [ 12 . 631 y ) were collected. Interventions: Data were collected by questionnaires assessing body image, pain behavior, training activity, and LBP . Main Outcome Measures : To examine group differences between athletes and nonathletes regarding body image and pain behavion the authors performed 2-way analyses of variance with Bonferroni post hoc tests. Results: The results showed (1) a significant main effect regarding pain responses and body image, showing that participants with eustress endurance or adaptive pain behavior revealed a more positive body image in both groups compared with participants with distress endurance or fear-avoidance behavior. and (2) a significant main effect for the factor group in the body image dimension of physical efficacy, indicating a more positive body image for athletes. Conclusion: These results suggest that considering multiple risk factors for LBP, such as body image and dysfunctional pain behavior, as well as subgrouping, might be valuable for research and for broadening therapy options.
