Therefore, the purpose of this study was to design and psychoanalyze a questionnaire of knowledge, attitude and behavior of medical staff about low back pain.

In this study, the tool used was a questionnaire to assess knowledge, attitude and behavior, which was designed using scientific sources, studies and expert opinions. To evaluate the content validity, the content validity ratio and the content validity index were used using the opinions of 10 experts.
