OBJECTIVE: To analyze attitudes and beliefs about movement and physical activity in @entity1 with @entity1643 ( @entity1643 ) and compare these beliefs between @entity1 with acute and chronic @entity1643 . DESIGN: Qualitative inductive analysis of data collected via face-to-face semistructured interviews. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. SETTING: @entity1 were purposively recruited from 1 region of New Zealand. @entity1 : @entity1 with @entity1643 (N=23), consisting of individuals with acute @entity1643 (<6wk; n=12) and chronic @entity1643 (>3mo; n=11). INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Themes that emerged from @entity1 interview transcripts using analysis based on Interpretative Description. RESULTS: @entity1 with acute and chronic @entity1643 made judgments about physical activity and rest using the same conceptual model. Concerns about creating more @entity158 , @entity3145 , or impairment influenced the physical activity judgments of most @entity1 with acute and chronic @entity1643 . These perceived risks were balanced against the perceived benefits, the most important of which were @entity458 or social rather than physical. Judgments made by those with acute and chronic @entity1643 were context dependent and influenced by the nature and duration of @entity158 , the type of physical activity, the importance of the activity, and the @entity1 's previous experience. @entity1 with acute @entity158 who had not experienced back @entity158 previously often expressed more uncertainty, whereas those with chronic @entity1643 appeared to have developed cognitive rules that determined physical activity decisions. CONCLUSIONS: Exploring the perceived risks, benefits, and contextual factors that influence decisions about physical activity and rest may help clinicians to understand the behavior of @entity1 with acute and chronic @entity1643 . Clinicians may best support their @entity1 to engage in physical activity by providing an informed assessment of risks and an explanation about the range of potential benefits.
