Plain-language summary

It was aimed to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise on pain, alexithymia level and quality of life in young alexithymic individuals with chronic pain. There is no study in the literature comparing the effectiveness of aerobic exercise on alexithymia and chronic pain. Since our study will be the first study to investigate the subject, we foresee that it is scientifically important and will shed light on future studies. In addition, it is planned to make national or international papers and publications after the study is completed.
