Abstract :Purpose: The aim of the study was to compare the kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, physical activity, anxiety, and depression in patients with or without MI. Methods: A cross-sectional prospective case-control study was conducted with a total of 100 participants (50 myocardial infarction, 50 age-sex matched controls). Participants were evaluated with the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia for Heart (TSK Heart), Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Hospital Anxiety And Depression Scale (HADS). Results: There was significant difference between two groups in all subscales of IPAQ-SF (except sitting time) (p 0.05). Second, TSK Heart was correlated with Sitting PA, Walking PA, Moderate PA, HAD-A and HAD-D (r=0.425-0.827,p<0.01). There was relationship between HAD-A with Sitting PA, Walking PA and Moderate PA (r1=0.445,r2=-0.485,r3=-0.378,p<0.01). Lastly, HAD-D was correlated with Sitting PA, Walking PA and Moderate PA (r1=0.475,r2=-0.520,r3=-0.578,p<0.01). Conclusion: The study results showed that the decreased physical activity, increased kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, depression and anxiety in patients with MI. In addition, kinesiophobia was demonstrated to be related with mild-moderate physical activity and depression-anxiety.Keywords : Aerobic exercise, fear of movement, MI, pain perception, psychosocial status
