摘要：

The present study purposed to investigate the association of neck pain and disorders with depression and anxiety symptoms. An available sample of 200 elderly aged over 60 years with mean age of 65.85 years were selected to be surveyed. The general health questionnaire of Goldberg(1972) and Nordic questionnaire were used at this study. Logistic regression with the significance level of p <= 0.05 was used. logistic regression predicted the association of neck pain and disorders with depression and anxiety symptoms(p<0.05). The present study concluded that neck pain and dysfunction may be associated with depression and anxiety in the elderly. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
