Psychological processes of ACL-patients' post-surgery rehabilitation : A prospective test of an integrated theoretical model
2020
Objectives: The aim of this prospective study was to examine the utility of an integrated model comprising constructs from self-determination theory (SDT) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in predicting adherence to a post-surgery rehabilitation program in patients receiving anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

At baseline and two-month follow-up, patients com…
