Alzahra University and the relationship between them. All the students(n=261) who
had the physical education course(1) at second semester 2003-2004 at Al-zahra
University were selected purposely; so,statistical population and statistical sample
were the same. The researcher-made questionnaires were filled out by participants.
The postural status of students were studied under New York Test by spondylometer
and checked plane. To analyze data, Chi Square was applied. The results show that
about half of the testes carried their bags over right shoulders and the bags of more
than half of them had fair weight. Majority of students didn’t participate in any
physical activities and about 30 percent of testees used sport shoes. Almost half of
testees had back pain and the muscle pain in back, shoulder and neck. Between sitting
status during study and genu varum, between style of corrying bogs and shoulder
prolapse , between sleeping status and thorasic kypholordotic and khphosis posture,
between shoe style and hallux valgus and , also, between sport and back pain and
shoulder muscle pain, relationships were significant.
