dc.description.abstractThis study aims to analyse the applicability of a new experimental procedure to determine bio- mechanical and psychophysical changes in young students, during the schoolbag carriage over one and two shoulders. A pilot study was performed, involving eight male students aged between 12 and 13 years old. Ex- perimental tests were also performed. The students were requested to walk on a treadmill for 10 minutes, with and without the backpack. The load of the backpacks was 10%, 15% and 20% of the students’ body weight (BW). Biomechanical and psychophysical changes were found. The results obtained are interesting to better understand the problem of students carrying heavily loaded schoolbags or carrying them improperly. Still, some limitations to the experimental procedure were pointed out.pt_PT
