Objectives:
This study aimed to evaluate the quality, reliability and content of YouTube videos related to office ergonomics.
Methods:
The descriptive study analyzed 196 English-language YouTube videos, selected from 752 videos published, using the keywords 'workplace ergonomics' or 'office ergonomics' based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The reliability, quality and content of the videos were assessed using the modified DISCERN (mDISCERN), the global quality score (GQS) and the office ergonomics content evaluation checklist (OE-CEC).
Results:
Researcher 1 rated 71.5% as low quality, 68.4% as low reliability and 69.4% as insufficient content, while Researcher 2 rated 62.3, 59.8 and 70.9% respectively. mDISCERN and OE-CEC scores were significantly associated with uploader source, subtitle presence and video duration. Content scores were also associated with view ratio and number of comments. The GQS mean showed significant associations with uploader source, duration, view ratio, video power index and number of comments.
Conclusions:
YouTube videos on office ergonomics were of low quality, low reliability and insufficient content. Public institutions produced more reliable and higher quality videos, and longer videos contained more comprehensive information. It is recommended that government agencies, universities and occupational health teams are encouraged to produce accurate and reliable videos on office ergonomics.
