Based on the theory of planned behavior, this study examined factors related to the intention to adhere to an unsupervised walking program and the intention-behavior gap in relation to walking adherence in women with fibromyalgia. We also accounted for specific variables: fear of movement, pain intensity, distress and disability. TPB constructs, walking behavior and the above-mentioned variables were assessed in 274 women aged 18 to 70 years old (mean 51.8, range 25.5-69.1 years) at baseline and seven weeks later (n = 219) during 2012. Intention to adhere to a walking program showed medium scores at baseline and was associated with attitude and perceived behavioral control (PBC). Self-reported walking adherence at Time 2 was only predicted by perceived behavioral control. The intention-behavior gap was present in 33% of participants. Logistic regression analysis showed PBC associated with being a successful intender. Women with fibromyalgia were motivated to walk; however, they did not act on their intentions, and PBC appeared as the main explanation. Women who perceived high control in comparison to those who perceived low control, increased their likelihood of adhering to a walking program about three-fold. Women with fibromyalgia should increase their perceived control through different strategies
