Brief summary: The aim of this study was to determine the validity, reliability and sensitivity of the Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach Scale in patients with neck pain.

Detailed description: According to the power analyzes 199 neck pain patients will be taken to the study.The study will be initiated after the approval of the Ethics Committee of the Eastern Mediterranean University Faculty of Health Sciences. After informing about the content of the study, individuals who want to participate in the study will be asked to sign the informed consent form. In order to evaluate the validity and reliability of the BETY scale in the study, the same individuals will be given a test-retest with 1 week intervals. In these tests, the Neck Disability Index (NDI), Arm Shoulder and Hand Problems Questionnaire (DASH), Short Form-36 (SF-36), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and BETY scale will be applied.In order to assess the sensitivity to change, 44 individuals will be asked to re-fill the forms after the traditional physiotherapy program for neck pain, which will be administered 10 sessions. For 2 weeks, a routine exercise program consisting of 20 minutes of conventional TENS, 20 minutes of hotpack, 8 minutes of therapeutic ultrasound and isotonic, isometric, stretching and relaxation exercises will be applied.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Individuals aged between 18-65 years
* Neck pain VAS out of 3 and above which individuals
* Individuals who have neck pain for more than 3 months

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with previous neck surgery history
* Not willing to participate in the study
* Attract trouble understanding for filling scale
