Måste det göra ont att spela? - En kvantitativ studie om ergonomi och kontrabasspel
(2008)Malmö Academy of Music
- Abstract
- Does playing have to hurt? - A quantitative study of ergonomics and double bass playing. This is a paper about ergonomics and double bass playing. I have studied the prevalence of playing-related pain in professional double bass players, teachers and students. This study is based on a questionnaire with 11 questions about double bass playing and pain. The answers come from 185 double bassists from all over the world. This is, as far as I know, the only study exclusively of double bassists. All previous studies are of musicians as a group or string players (mainly violinists). I came to the conclusion that there is a very high prevalence of playing-related pain regarding double bass players. More research is needed to come to terms with the... (More)

Det här är en studie om ergonomi och kontrabasspel. Jag har studerat förekomsten av spelrelaterad värk hos verksamma kontrabasister, lärare och studenter. Studien bygger på en enkät med 11 frågor om kontrabasspel och värk. Denna har besvarats av 185 kontrabasister över hela världen. Detta är, så vitt jag vet, den enda studien av enbart kontrabasister. All tidigare forskning har gjorts på musiker som grupp eller stråkmusiker (främst violinister). Jag har kommit fram till att det är en mycket hög andel kontrabasister som lider av spelrelaterad värk. Mer forskning behövs för att komma till rätta med dessa problem och för att hitta fungerande åtgärder och utveckla det förebyggande arbetet. (Less)
