Abstract

With the pandemic, universities transitioned to online learning leading to increased screen time. This study aims to examine the relationship between screen time and physical discomfort. Results indicate that screen time is not a significant predictor of pain. Interestingly, user engagement levels are a significant predictor of pain in hip/thigh.
