NCT ID NCT07403422
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined 80 university students aged 18 to 26 to see how forward head posture relates to neck position sense, muscle endurance, and heart-lung function during thinking and movement tasks. Researchers measured how accurately students could reposition their heads and how long they could hold a neck exercise. The goal was to understand the effects of common poor posture without providing treatment.
