Summary

This observational study evaluates the impact of a Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE) program on primary school students in Extremadura, Spain. The study examines satisfaction levels and knowledge acquisition regarding pain neuroscience among students with and without intellectual disabilities. Conducted across both rural and urban educational centers, as well as special and regular education schools, this study aims to identify the effectiveness of PNE in enhancing pain-related knowledge and addressing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) awareness. Additionally, the program includes interactive educational activities tailored for accessibility, using resources such as easy-to-read questionnaires and hands-on models, to support inclusive health education. Data collection involves pre- and post-intervention questionnaires to assess satisfaction and knowledge gains, with statistical analysis exploring differences between demographic and school-type groups.
