Primarily, we assessed KAP and then data regarding the physical health collected before and after giving instructions (After 3 months) using questionnaires. The instructional schedule included lectures, films and booklets. Findings: There was a significant increase in mean scores for KAP before giving instructions and after (P=0.000). Objective measures showed significant increase in preventional behavior about postural scoliosis in students after instruction. There was an incidence of 7.5% of postural scoliosis in 120 students. Conclusion: It also showed a significant relationship between fathers and mothers’ literacy and KAP of students.S SaamAR Heidar NiaM Pour GhasemBabol University of Medical SciencesarticlescoliosispreventionknowledgeattitudepracticekapMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 1, Iss 2, Pp 24-31 (1999)
