Objective: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of pain catastrophizing and neuroticism in the prediction of fear of movement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Method: This study was a correlational study. From patients with rheumatoid arthritisexperiencing chronic pain who referred to Gilan health centers, 100 patients were selected through convenience sampling method. Instruments used in this study included the Tampa scale of kinesiophobia (TSK), the Pain catastrophizing Scale (PCS), and the NEO five-factor inventory-short form (NEO-FFI). Findings: The results showed that pain catastrophizing and neuroticism significantly predicted fear of movement. The standardized regression coefficient for pain catastrophizing was 43.33 and for neuroticism was 0.278. Conclusion: neuroticism and pain catastrophizing can affect the quality of life by increasing the patient's fear of movement and avoiding activity, and increase chronic pain problems. Therefore, these factors need to be considered in the management and treatment of these patients

Objective: Family as an important social factor affecting chronic pain is considered by researchers in the field of pain because it is one of the most effective environments for people's physical and mental health. Methods: Accordingly, a research was conducted to investigate the progression of phobia movement based on the dimensions of family functioning with a total of 100 patients with musculoskeletal pain using available random sampling. The questionnaires (FAD) and (TSK) questionnaire were used to examine the family function and the movement of chronic pain-related phobias. Results: The results showed that the relationship between total family function and fear of motion variable is significant (α = 0.219) at α = 0.05. This relation is direct and among the dimensions of family function, emotional blend, emotional responsiveness and communication the greatest relationship was shown with this variable, and the dimensions of family function explained the amount of phobia motion due to chronic musculoskeletal pain. Conclusion: This study showed that general family function can have an effect on panic disorder, problem solving, emotional blend, emotional response and direct communication.

Objective: Nowadays family as an important social factor that effects chronic pain is being considered by researchers. Family is an effective environment in physical and mental health of people that provides the necessary conditions for development and achieve physical, mental and social balance. Methods: Family provides this conditions through a series of common actions which named family function. The aim of present study was to exam the contribution of dimensions of family function in fear of movement at patients with musculoskeletal chronic pain selected randomly. Family Assessment Device (FAD) and TAMPA questionnaire for assessing fear of movement is completed by participants. Results: It was found that there was a relation with family function dimensions and fear of movement variables and this relation was direct and among family function dimensions, problem solving, affective involvement, and affective responsiveness. Conclusion: Communication were the most related dimensions with fear of movement and problem solving is the most related one (9.1).
