A pilot study was designed to investigate the attitudes and practices of parents of teenage musicians concerning health issues related to playing an instrument. Participants were a convenience sample of parents of children at two metropolitan high schools, one an academically selective public high school, and the other a specialised music public high school. Information came from a questionnaire completed by the parents. The 24 children ranged in age from 12 to 17 yrs. Parents' responses suggested that they recognised the importance of their children having good knowledge of health and normal body function in order to optimise the children's musical performance and to minimise the adverse impact of the playing on their children's health. The parental responses were similar in both the academically selective and musically selective schools despite the fact that half of the parents of children at the musically selective school seemed to accept that pain associated with playing an instrument is normal, whereas all of the parents from the academically selective school disagreed with this proposition. A more detailed study of the issues considered in this pilot study appears warranted.
一项试点研究旨在调查青少年音乐家的父母对与乐器演奏相关健康问题的态度和做法。参与者是来自两所大都市高中的儿童家长的便利样本,一所是学术择优的公立高中,另一所是专门的音乐公立高中。信息来自家长填写的问卷。这24名儿童的年龄在12至17岁之间。家长的回答表明,他们认识到孩子了解健康和正常身体功能对于优化孩子的音乐表现以及将演奏对孩子健康的不利影响降至最低的重要性。尽管在音乐特色学校,有一半孩子的家长似乎认为与乐器演奏相关的疼痛是正常的,而在学术择优学校,所有家长都不同意这一观点,但在学术择优学校和音乐特色学校,家长的回答是相似的。对这项试点研究所考虑的问题进行更详细的研究似乎是有必要的。
