Journal Article
Network analyses of physical and psychological factors of playing-related musculoskeletal disorders in student musicians: a cross-sectional study
2024
Overview
Background
Young musicians starting their professional education are particularly vulnerable to playing-related musculoskeletal disorders (PRMDs). In the context of research on PRMDs, physical and psychological associated factors are frequently highlighted without investigating their complex interrelationships. The objective of this exploratory study was to examine the associations between lifestyle, music practice habits, physical and psychological variables, and PRMDs in student musicians.
Methods
Students of the Geneva University of Music participated in the survey. The primary outcome was students’ PRMDs, measured with the validated Musculoskeletal Pain Intensity and Interference Questionnaire for Musicians (MPIIQM). Additionally, to investigate potential associated factors, participants completed free-form questions about lifestyle and practice habits and seven validated questionnaires: physical activity, self-rated health, psychological distress, musical performance anxiety (MPA), perfectionism, fatigue, and personality traits. After performing standard descriptive statistics, network analyses were applied to investigate the links between students' PRMDs experience and all factors.
Results
Two hundred thirty-five student musicians completed the survey. 86 (37%) participants experienced PRMDs over the last 12 months. When considering all participating students, the network analysis showed the strongest association between the presence of PRMDs and the psychological distress factor. In the subgroup with students with PRMDs, the degree of pain interference with musical practice was correlated with psychological distress, MPA, self-rated health, and fatigue.
Conclusion
Psychological distress is the primary factor associated with PRMDs, whereas physical factors like posture and activity show no direct link. Therefore, addressing psychological aspects is crucial for student musicians with physical disorders to provide proper prevention care.
