Summary

Asthma is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation characterized by time-varying respiratory symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough, with limitation of expiratory airflow. These variations are often triggered by exercise, exposure to allergens or an irritation, weather changes or viral respiratory diseases (Karakış, 2018). Increased respiratory distress decreases the patient's activity, decreases the condition and makes the individual dependent in daily life. In the studies conducted in asthma patients, the cases stated that they perceived their illness as an obstacle against physical activity and thus they were pushed to immobility (Kırtay \& Oğuz, 2011). In the literature, no study on the variable of kinesiophobia in asthma was found. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between kinesiophobia and physical activity level and quality of life in asthma patients.
