Description: Understanding pain and its mechanisms can play an important role in (post-) cancer rehabilitation. In order to test patient's knowledge of pain, the Revised Neurophysiology of Pain Questionnaire was developed and translated into Dutch (RNPQ-NL). However, its psychometric properties have not been examined yet.The goal is to examine the psychometric properties of the RNPQ-NL as a tool to measure the knowledge of pain; in addition, its cross-cultural validity between Belgian and Dutch participants is examined.277 persons from Belgium and the Netherlands participated in this study. Cancer patients and survivors (CPaS) (n = 115) were compared to a group of experts with medical training (n = 97). Highly educated individuals without medical background (n = 65) served as control group. The RNPQ-NL was filled out twice and scores analysed in accordance with the COSMIN-recommendation for assessing the methodological quality of studies on measurement properties of health status instruments.The RNPQ-NL was able to distinguish between high and low knowledge of pain. The CPaS group scored significantly lower on the RNPQ-NL compared to the expert group (p
