Multicenter Study[Psychobehavioural assessment for chronic low back pain].
Psychobehavioural assessment may be a complementary approach to assess response to treatment for pain and disability in patients with low back pain. ⋯ All the correlation assessments with psychobehaviour factors are weak. So evaluating each of these parameters will be interesting. Duration of pain was not correlated with increasing pain or change in behavioural strategy. Psychobehavioural factors are more invalidating than pain. More study is needed to assess psychobehavioural therapies in patients with low back pain.

Multicenter Study Comparative Study[Impact of functional restoration programs on fears, avoidance and beliefs in chronic low back pain patients].
To assess the impact of functional restoration programs on fears, avoidance and beliefs in chronic low back pain. ⋯ Functional restoration programs in their current form in France do not decrease fears and beliefs about professional activities in chronic low back pain patients. Adding psychosocial intervention at the work place to the functional restoration programs may lead to a better impact on fears about work thus reducing work loss.
