      ab: Abstract: Background: There is a growing interest in the role of disturbed body perception in people with persistent pain problems such as chronic low back pain (CLBP). A questionnaire, the Fremantle Back Awareness Questionnaire (FreBAQ), was recently developed as a simple and quick way of assessing disturbed perceptual awareness of the back in people with CLBP and appears to have acceptable psychometric properties. The aim of the present study was to develop a Japanese version of the FreBAQ (FreBAQ‐J) and evaluate its psychometric properties in a sample of Japanese people with low back pain (LBP). Methods: Translation of the FreBAQ into Japanese was conducted using a forward‐backward method. One hundred participants with LBP completed the resultant FreBAQ‐J. A subset of the participants completed the FreBAQ‐J again 2 weeks later. Validity was investigated by examining the relationship between the FreBAQ‐J and clinical valuables. Rasch analysis was used to assess targeting, category ordering, unidimensionality, person fit, internal consistency, and differential item functioning. Results: The FreBAQ‐J was significantly correlated with pain in motion, disability, pain‐related catastrophizing, fear of movement, and anxiety symptomatology. The FreBAQ‐J had acceptable internal consistency, a minor departure from unidimensionality, and good test‐retest reliability, and was functional on the category rating scale. Conclusions: The FreBAQ‐J has acceptable psychometric properties and is suitable for use in people with LBP. Participants with high levels of disturbed body perception are well targeted by the scale. The functioning of one item (item 8) was poor. Further study is warranted to confirm if this item should be excluded.
