CrossLaggedPanelModel1.sav

In this study we explored the association between fear of movement (kinesiophobia) and physical activity (PA) in cardiac patients. We performed a longitudinal observational study. PA was continuously measured from hospital discharge to 12 weeks using the Personal Activity Monitor. The PAM measures time spent per day in PA-intensity categories: light, moderate and heavy. Kinesiophobia was assessed with the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) at four time points (hospital discharge, 3, 6 and 12 weeks). The longitudinal association between PA-intensity and kinesiophobia was studied with a random intercept cross lagged panel model (RI-CLPM). A RI-CLPM estimates effects from kinesiophobia on objectively measured PA and vice versa (cross-over effects), and autoregressive effects (e.g. kinesiophobia from one occasion to the next).

This longitudinal dataset contains the variables for physical activity and kinesiophobia. All other variables were removed form the dataset as they were not used in the analysis.

Variables description
Physical activity per week in categories

LIGHTWK = Light physical activity week (1-13)
MEDWK = Medium physical activity week (1-13)

HEAVYWK = Heavy physical activity week (1-13)
Explanation: Physical activity was measured daily with the PAM sensor.
Scores are presented as physical activity minutes in a certain intensity category (average amount of minutes per week).

Physical activity per week Total score (Light + Medium + Heavy)
PA1 = Total Physical activity week 1
PA2= Total Physical activity week 3

PA3 = Total Physical activity week 6
PA4 = Total Physical activity week 12

Explanation: Physical activity was measured daily the PAM sensor.
Scores are presented as minutes performing a certain intensity category (average of total physical activity levels in minutes per week).

Kinesiophobia (Fear of movement)
TSKT0 = Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia week 1
TSKT1 = Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia week 3

TSKT2 = Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia week 6
TSKT3 = Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia week 12

Explanation: Kinesiophobia was measured with Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK). This is a 13 item questionnaire with a 4-point scale (range 13-52).
