Thank you, I’m very grateful that you took the time to read the study details so carefully and for flagging those concerns. I apologise for not including this information up front; that was an oversight on my part and I appreciate you pointing it out. This project is being conducted at the Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, University of Messina (https://dimed.unime.it/it), as part of my graduate thesis. My project supervisor is Dr. Matteo Nanni, Consultant (Dirigente Medico) in Orthopedics and Traumatology at Ospedale Maggiore “C.A. Pizzardi”, Bologna (https://www.ior.it/curarsi-al-rizzoli/dr-matteo-nanni-0). Asitionally, I will attach Ethics Statement & Data Control Protocol for the study to this post so anyone can review the full details. Thank you for raising the distinction between sex and gender, that is an important point. To be clear and respectful: The item in the survey asks for biological sex (male / female) because this study is investigating biological risk factors that may plausibly differ between sexes (for example, in musculoskeletal physiology or injury susceptibility). The choice to collect biological sex is therefore strictly scientific and relates only to the research question. I fully respect gender identity and the social meaning of gender. The survey does not assume gender identity from the sex question, nor does it make any judgement about people’s identities or experiences. No identifying information is collected; all responses are anonymous and will be analysed and reported only in aggregate. Because responses are collected anonymously, individual submissions cannot normally be linked back to a person, and therefore it may not be possible to remove a submitted response from the dataset after it has been sent. Thank you guys for your understands Ethics Statement .pdf

Hi, I'm a physiotherapy student. I'm conducting a study for my thesis on physical disorders in bass players. If you play bass, can you fill out this short questionnaire? It only takes less than 5 minutes, thanks for your help. (The data collected will be treated anonymously and used exclusively for research purposes related to my thesis. No personal information will be shared with third parties, and you can stop filling out the form at any time.) https://forms.gle/KzhcWRyaNjf9oTsz5
