Study population: Study group will consist of 30-65 years old people who will be agreed to take part in the study. There will be two groups. 1 of them is healthy group and the other is for people with low back pain. The partipicians will be literate enough to answer the questions in scales and questionnares by themselves

Brief summary: Self-efficacy is defined as a person's confidence or belief that one can achieve a certain behavioral or cognitive state. Self-efficacy is one of the most important assesment parameters in the self-management model. It is accepted that patients with chronic low back pain with high self-efficacy have a better prognosis than those with low self-efficacy. Due to the complex nature of pain; The relationship between psychological and physical parameters such as pain catastrophy, disability level, depression, physical performance, self-efficacy, pain intensity and fear avoidance arouses curiosity. The aim of this cross-sectional study is to examine the relationship between the level of self-efficacy and sensory, perceptual and motor skills in people with chronic low back pain.
