and Al-Russafa sectors. Data was collected through a specially constructed questionnaire format include (24)
items multiple choice questions, and researcher observation. The validity of the questionnaire was determined
through a panel of experts related to the field of the study, and the reliability through a pilot study. The data

Results: The study results revealed that most of the prepubertal children have idiopathic scoliosis, two third of
the sample (88.4%) were at age 10-12 years and mostly boys. There is highly significant association with (low
Body Mass Index & carry of the school backpack) but no significant association with the age, gender, and lung

& the researcher observation for the prepubertal body feature, and Adam's Bending Forward Test which
