Official title:
Why do People With Low Back Pain Fear and Avoid Lifting?
The investigators' main focus of this trial will be to investigate - why people with low back pain perceive lifting (with a bent back) as harmful. - whether general measures of pain-related fear are associated with task-specific measures of perceived harmfulness - why people with low back pain avoid lifting (with a bent back) This will be investigated using self-report (i.e., questionnaires)

| Other | Sex | Male, female, other | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Other | Physical job requirements | Questionnaire (derived from de Dutch Musculoskeletal Questionnaire) asking about physical job requirements | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Primary | cognitions about perceived harmfulness and avoidance of lifting | cognitions about perceived harmfulness and avoidance of lifting using self-developed questionnaires. Questions will be scored on a 1-5 Likert scale (1= completely disagree, 5= completely agree) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Pain-related fear | Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia 11-item version questionaire (range= 11-44. Higher score = higher levels of pain-related fear) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | perceived harmfulness of specific tasks | perceived harmfulness of specific tasks measured with a selection of pictures of the Photographs of Daily Activities - Short Electronic version. Each picture will be scored on a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating higher levels of perceived harmfulness | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Disability | Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (score range= 0-24, higher score= higher level of disbility) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Task-specific self-efficacy | For different tasks, participants will be asked to rate the task-specific self-efficacy on a 0-10 Visual analogue scale (higher scores= higher levels of self-efficacy) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Task-specific disability | For different tasks, participants will be asked to rate their perceived disability on a 0-10 Visual analogue scale (higher scores= higher levels of disability) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Pain-related fear | Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire. The Activity Avoidance Subscale (score range= 0-24) and Work subscale (score range= 0-42) will both be used. Higher scores indicate higher levels of pain-related fear | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) | |
| Secondary | Pain intensity | Numeric rating scale (0-10, higher score= higher level of pain) | Day 1 (cross-sectional study) |
