The work-related musculoskeletal injuries are important factors to hurt staff health. Many people suffer from work-related impairment and disability that create high costs for both employees and employers. There are various reasons to obvious musculoskeletal pains and psychological factors can be one of them. The main purpose of present study was to investigate the relationship between psychological factors and musculoskeletal pains with respect to demographical variables in hospital staff.
This descriptive –analytical study consisted 264 out of 800 total population of staff who were randomly selected. 1.Demographical, 2.stress, 3.cognitive abilities and 4.Music questionnaires were used for data collection. The reliability and validity of questionnaires were fit with research purpose. Descriptive and inferential statistics (t and F tests) were employed for data analysis.
There were significant differences between staff cognitive abilities and job stress with respect to their musculoskeletal pains in back and neck but there were not found significant differences between staff cognitive abilities with their shoulders pain. There were significant differences between staff job stress and demographical variables (gender(P=0.01), marital status(P=0.05) and education(P=0.02)) and there were not found significant differences with their cognitive abilities.
Discussion and In general, it can be concluded that some employees such as nurses suffer from job stress and musculoskeletal pains who have cognitive abilities in the level of average and lower. Conversely, those people who have flexible thinking ability can utilize alternative explanation, reconstruct frame of their thoughts positively and accept challenging situations or stressful events. They are more resilience in comparison with people who are not flexible.their shoulders pain. There were significant differences between staff job stress and demographical variables (gender, marital status and education) and there were not found significant differences with their cognitive abilities.

An increase in weight of school bags may lead to changes in body position. To compensate this stress, the musculoskeletal system must react appropriately. The purpose of the present study was to compare the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain among children and identify the risk factors for musculoskeletal disorders. The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 800 secondary school children, aged 12 to 15 years, selected by cluster random sampling in four areas of Shiraz, Iran. The researcher instrument consisted of a questionnaire and body map for evaluating musculoskeletal pains. Data were analyzed using Kruskal- Wallis and Mann-Whitney test. The results revealed that 80.6% of the students had pain correlation with carrying the school bags. 40.8% experienced pain while carrying their school bags, 27.2% expressed continuous pain and 32% of them felt pain whenever they put off their bags. According to the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain, the prevalence of pain in the shoulders had the highest rate which was similar to the results of several studies.

The spine serves as the main support of the body. During activities، postural stability depends on the simultaneous function of the muscles، passive elements، and also the neural elements. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between spinal abnormalities and musculoskeletal pains in the areas related to these abnormalities in the students of Hamadan University of Medical Sciences.

241 students (157 females with the mean age of 19. 42 years، SD=1. 1 years; 84maleswith the mean age of 21. 01 years، SD=2. 25 years) voluntarily participated in this study. Spinal alignment was evaluated by posture screen، plumb line and the New York Test of the Lateral Head Deviation to determine the rates of forward head، shoulder asymmetry، kyphosis and lordosis. To determine the location and intensity of pain in the head، the left-and right-neck، the left- and right-shoulder and the low-back regions، a tailor-made questionnaire with visual analog scale was used. Finally، using the correlation coefficient، the data were statistically analyzed.

There was significant relationship between lateral head deviation and both headache and the left-side neck pain (P < 0. 05). Kyphosis was significantly correlated with feeling pain in the right and the left shoulders and also with inters scapular pain (P < 0. 05). Moreover، significant relationship between lordosis and low back pains was observed (P < 0. 05).

The results of this study indicate a signification relationship between the presence of some postural abnormalities and the incidence of musculoskeletal pain.
