Wrong-size school bench lowers students’ cognition

TEHRAN, Oct. 7 (MNA) – The head of the Iranian Physiotherapy Association said wrong-size chairs and tables not only cause a pain in students’ muscles they also lessen their comprehension and learning abilities. Dr. Esmaeil Ebrahimi, in an interview with the Mehr News Agency, said that sitting on short or very tall chairs and using nonstandard tables will cause physical and mental problems for students. Students hunch their shoulders and lose their energy when the size of chairs and tables are not fit, Ibrahimi said.
