The purpose of this study was to survey physical education teachers’ viewpoints
on sport injuries at schools. Viewpoints of 83 physical education teachers (mean
age: 35.32±2.58 years, mean work experience: 12±6.42 years) who were directly
working with students at schools were collected by a researcher-made questioner
and interview. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics. The results showed
that most physical education teachers (38.6%) believed that contusion was the
most prevalent injury at schools. Also, most physical education teachers (67.5%)
believed that most injuries happened in lower limbs at schools. 40.9% believed that
the most important external factor of injuries was non-standard playground and
37.4% believed that the most important internal factor of injuries was a lack of
body fitness. 72.2% of teachers believed that the most important factor of injuries
was traumatic mechanism at schools.
