| DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTRUMENT | |
| Type Of Measure | Questionnaire |
| Brief Description |
The Cognitive Exercise Therapy approach (BETY) is an innovative exercise approach that aims to change the patient's cognition about the disease through exercise, assigns the responsibility of disease management to the patient, can be applied individually or in groups, and is suitable for the biopsychosocial model. BETY-BQ was developed based on the dimensions of well-being identifed by rheumatic patients and their input from an exercise-based biopsychosocial approach (BETY) that has been going on for 14 years. The fnal 30-item questionnaire (BETY-BQ) was produced in 2017. BETY-BQ is a scale that includes many biopsychosocial components such as improvement in pain coping skills, socialization, positive mood, sexuality, functionality, fatigue, and sleep quality. BETY-BQ, which is a patient self-reported questionnaire, was developed in Turkish. |
