To examine among adolescents (1) the prevalence of neck\/shoulder, low back, and arm pain within different sociodemographic groups and (2) the association of neck\/shoulder, low back, and arm pain with computer use, physical activity, depression, and stress.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>METHODS. A school-based questionnaire survey in 2002 and 2003 of neck\/shoulder, low back, and arm pain, computer use, physical activity, depression, and stress. The survey was given to 3485 adolescents aged 12 to 16 years who attended secondary schools in Amsterdam, Netherlands.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>RESULTS. The overall prevalence of neck\/shoulder, low back, and arm pain was 11.5%, 7.5%, and 3.9%, respectively. The prevalence of neck\/shoulder pain was higher among girls and adolescents not living with both parents. The prevalence of low back pain also was higher among girls. Depressive symptoms were associated with neck\/shoulder pain, low back pain, and arm pain. The stress experienced was associated with neck\/shoulder pain and with low back pain.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>CONCLUSIONS. This study strengthens the findings that musculoskeletal pain is common among adolescents and is associated with depression and stress but not with computer use and physical activity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2004-2766","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,1]],"date-time":"2006-02-01T19:21:17Z","timestamp":1138821677000},"page":"412-416","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":188,"title":["Neck\/Shoulder, Low Back, and Arm Pain in Relation to Computer Use, Physical Activity, Stress, and Depression Among Dutch Adolescents"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"117","author":[{"given":"A.C.M.","family":"Diepenmaat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Health Promotion, Municipal Health Service, Amsterdam, Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.F.","family":"van der Wal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Health Promotion, Municipal Health Service, Amsterdam, Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H.C.W.","family":"de Vet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Research in Extramural Medicine"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.A.","family":"Hirasing","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Research in Extramural Medicine"},{"name":"Department of Public and Occupational Health, VU University Medical Center, Amsterdam, Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"417","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021120820055934600_R1","unstructured":"Blatter BM, van den Heuvel SG, Bongers, Picavet HSJ, Schoemaker CG.
