A secondary question of the present study is the hypothesis that adopting the wrong posture while using smart devices plays an important role in the onset of symptoms in one or more parts of the body. Finally, the third research question of the present study concerns whether long-term use of electronic devices is responsible for reducing physical activity in students.\n\nIn order to prove the positive correlation between technology and musculoskeletal disorders but also to answer the above questions, a questionnaire was distributed online to one hundred and twenty students of A '\\& B' Lyceum from all over Greece, which was promoted online. More specifically, the questionnaire included questions from two standard questionnaires, the Internet Addiction Test (IAT) and the Nordic Muscuskeletal Questionnaire (NQS).In addition they completed a medical history and supplementary questions about their physical condition and the attitudes they adopt when using electronic devices."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '17 Years', 'minimumAge': '15 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'A sample of 120 people was collected from all over Greece, more specifically 7.6% belong to the region of Attica, 7.6% belong to the region of Western Greece, 0.8% belong to the region of Thessaly, 32.8% belong to the region of Central Macedonia and 51.3% belong to the region of Crete .
