A Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the ‘Return to Duty Readiness Questionnaire’

The Readiness to Return to Duty Questionnaire (RDRQ) is a recently developed screening instrument for detecting fear-avoidance behavior in a military musculoskeletal pain population. The RDRQ was developed based on the Fear-Avoidance Model which postulates four factors resulting in overall fear-avoi...

description The Readiness to Return to Duty Questionnaire (RDRQ) is a recently developed screening instrument for detecting fear-avoidance behavior in a military musculoskeletal pain population. The RDRQ was developed based on the Fear-Avoidance Model which postulates four factors resulting in overall fear-avoidance behavior. While research investigating the factor structure of the RDRQ does not exist, research investigating the factor structure of other measures of fear avoidance have found evidence of one and two factor solutions. In the present paper we assess the adequacy of the proposed factor structure of the RDRQ using confirmatory factor analysis. The results favor a three-factor model. Theoretical implications for research using the RDRQ are discussed.
