Abstract

The purpose of this research was to design “Back Up Your Back,” a health education program for improving behaviors related to low back health, and to experimentally evaluate its effectiveness. The results indicated that experimental subjects scored significantly better than control subjects on measures of back-related behavior and back extension. This research concluded that a back education program can, over the short term, effectively modify back-related indexes of health in a worker population.
