Description

A total of 419 students enrolled in undergraduate and postgraduate design courses across various design institutes in India participated in the survey. The survey gathered information on demographic data, academic information, musculoskeletal symptoms in specific body parts, and average pain intensity. Musculoskeletal symptoms were documented using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire across nine body parts, while pain intensity was measured through a 10-point Likert scale. The survey was created on Jotform- an online form builder tool, and the data was collected remotely.
