Effectiveness of Health Education Program on Musculoskeletal Pain Management in Primary School Students
Sponsor: Universitat de Lleida
Summary
Musculoskeletal pain during childhood can negatively affect school attendance, physical activity, and social participation. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the school-based health education program 'SocLaLola', which uses a comic-based narrative to introduce children to pain science concepts and promote healthy lifestyle habits. The intervention will be compared with a standard program focused on sedentary behavior prevention. Students aged 8 to 11 years from two primary schools will participate. The primary objective is to determine whether SocLaLola is more effective than the comparison program in improving children's knowledge about pain and in reducing fear-avoidance beliefs related to physical activity.
