About

Our aim in this study is to translate the Inflammatory Arthritis Facilitators and Barriers to Physical Activity (IFAB) Questionnaire which was developed to determine the factors that facilitate and prevent individuals for physical activity for patients with inflammatory arthritis into Turkish language. Also, our aim is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the IFAB Questionnaire in the Turkish population, and to perform a cultural adaptation if necessary at the same time. Determining the factors that facilitate and prevent individuals for physical activity interventions with rheumatic diseases and then designing physical activity programs considering these factors may play an important role in reducing the symptoms caused by the disease and increasing their quality of life.
