Effects of an active breaks programme on the psychological performance of university students
Purpose: Mental fatigue resulting from prolonged cognitive activity leads to tiredness and decreased performance, particularly among university students. Active breaks (ABs) are short exercise sessions designed for use in the classroom, helping to alleviate stress and counteract the effects of prolonged sitting. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an AB programme on the psychological determinants of academic performance (motivation,…

Effects of an online school-based intervention on postural education knowledge among teachers
Objective: This study investigated the impact of an online postural education programme on primary school teachers’ knowledge regarding back care and low back pain (LBP) prevention. Design: This investigation was nested within a randomised controlled trial. Setting: A total of 61 teachers participated, divided into an experimental group ( n = 32) and a control group ( n = 29). Method: The intervention consisted of online training sessions focusin…
Effects of Postural Education Program (Pepe Study) on Daily Habits in Children
The current randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the effects of a postural education program on daily life habits related to low back pain (LBP) in children. Reducing the disease burden of unspecific LBP in children is of major public health relevance, as children with episodes of LBP tend to experience chronic back pain in adulthood. The study was performed in Majorca (Spain), with 253 primary school children aged between 10 and 12 y…
An on-line school-based randomised controlled trial to prevent non-specific low back pain in children
Objectives: This manuscript describes the rationale and protocol for an on-line, school-based randomised controlled trial of Projecte d’Educació Postural a l’Escola (Postural Education in School Project’ (PEPE) which aims to prevent non-specific low back pain and promote healthy postural habits in children. The study will examine the effects of the intervention on back care knowledge, daily postural habits (DPH) and the correct use of backpacks. …
Association between Physical Fitness and Low Back Pain
These results are of particular importance, as cardiorespiratory fitness is the parameter most closely related to health, and it seems to also be related to LBP-prevention
Knowledge of Low Back Pain among Primary School Teachers
Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal disease that affects a large percentage of the working population, including teachers. The World Health Organization has identified the school as an effective environment for improving child health. For this reason, the figure of the teacher is a fundamental piece in the process of knowledge acquisition about postural education and prevention of LBP among schoolchildren. The present study aims to…
Associations of Heart Rate Measures during Physical Education with Academic Performance and Executive Function in Children
The current evidence for a relation between children's heart rate measures and their academic performance and executive functioning is infancy. Despite several studies observing dose-response effects of physical activity on academic performance and executive function in children, further research using objective measures of the relative intensity of physical activity (e.g., heart rate) is warranted. The present study aimed to inspect associations…
Teaching skills, students' emotions, perceived control and academic achievement in university students
Multifactorial Identification of physical activity predictors in schoolchildren according to a socio-ecological model using multifactorial analysis
To know what factors can predict a teen to be physically active is of great interest to the design of interventions to promote physical activity more efficiently and to achieve adherence. The aim of this study was to analyze potential predictors of physical activity in schoolchildren between 10 and 16 years using a multifactorial model. The study included 3,479 students aged 10 - 16 years (1,945 boys - 55.9% - and 1,534 girls - 44.1% - ) with a m…
