摘要: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between weights backpack and back shoulder pains elementary school students in Korea. A cross-sectional sample 278 boys 233 girls aged 7 12 years were analyzed for study. 49.1% participated children reported their backpacks felt heavy, grater than 13.3% body weight. About 65.4% carried greater 10% weights. weight showed significant positive relationship with pain but not pain. results suggested that overweighed could cause musculoskeletal students. Therefore, an effective safety program parents is necessary educate them how prevent possible musculosketal related within perspective ergonomical approach.
