Most (103\/108, 95.4%) did not report the sex of the body charts used, and only 5.6% (6\/108) included both male and female charts. Experts showed fair to moderate agreement (Fleiss \u03ba=0.306; Gwet AC1=0.456) in assessing the sex of charts, with most charts assessed as male based on majority ratings (59\/108, 54.6%) and classified as male-biased relative to the sex distribution of study participants (76\/108, 67.7%). The newly designed sex-neutral body chart was perceived as sex-neutral by 68.5% (204\/298) of survey participants across diverse groups. However, perceptions varied by racial group: 73% (181\/248) of White participants viewed it as sex-neutral, compared to 42.5% (17\/40) of participants from smaller racial groups (\n \u03c7<\/jats:italic>\n \u00b2\n 2<\/jats:sub>\n =15.9;\n P<\/jats:italic>\n =.001). Female participants slightly preferred female charts (85\/154, 55.2%); male participants preferred sex-neutral ones (88\/144, 61.1%). Nonetheless, most female participants (82\/154, 53.3%) and male participants (107\/144, 74.3%) considered the option to choose between male, female, and sex-neutral chart versions unimportant.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Our study reveals reporting gaps and a predominant male bias in the representation of sex in PD body charts used in back pain research. The newly developed sex-neutral body chart was widely perceived as sex-neutral, offering a promising step toward more inclusive pain assessment. However, variations in perception across racial groups highlight the need for cultural considerations in design. These findings underscore the potential of sex-neutral and culturally sensitive body charts to enhance the inclusivity and equity of back pain research and clinical practice.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2196\/76175","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,9]],"date-time":"2026-02-09T20:13:40Z","timestamp":1770668020000},"page":"e76175-e76175","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sex Representation and User Preferences in Pain Drawing Body Charts in Back Pain Research: Multimethod Study"],"prefix":"10.2196","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0330-403X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sonja","family":"Schl\u00e4pfer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-8240-3766","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Casey","family":"Murphy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2576-6569","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yanick X","family":"Lukic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2724-2563","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Concepci\u00f3n","family":"Campos-Asensio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-4158-1435","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Giovanni","family":"Colacicco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9675-1172","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beatrice A","family":"Lauber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6996-9050","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophie","family":"Masneuf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2504-9719","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luana","family":"Nyir\u00f6","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-3814-7633","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Georg W","family":"Kajdi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6355-9838","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reto","family":"Sutter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5446-3057","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christoph J","family":"Laux","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4607-7620","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Philipp","family":"Ackermann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1598-8790","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jes\u00fas","family":"L\u00f3pez-Alcalde","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5440-7805","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claudia M","family":"Witt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1010","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,9]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2196\/humanfactors.5693","article-title":"Do gender-specific and high-resolution three dimensional body charts facilitate the communication of pain for women?
