Databases including CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, AMED, PsycINFO, SPORTDiscus and the Sedentary Behaviour and Research Network website (www.sedentarybehaviour.org) were searched for relevant published articles up to June 2014. Studies which measured sedentary behaviour in people with back pain were included. Quality of the included studies was assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale. The Consensus-based Standards for the Selection of Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) Checklist was used to assess psychometric properties.
