Retrospect 8 0 serial number6/14/2023 ![]() ![]() The overall results showed that school children significantly (p < 0.001) overestimated headache intensity in questionnaires as compared to diary recordings, whereas they underestimated frequency (p < 0.001) and duration (p < 0.001) of headaches. Most of the school children suffered from tension-type headaches and a smaller portion of migraine attacks. Methodsīesides headache severity, number of headache days, intensity levels and duration of headache episodes were estimated with both assessment methods. The aim of the study was to compare information on the prevalence and various characteristics of headaches not related to disease in a retrospect questionnaire and prospective daily recordings of headaches in a standard paper diary during a 3-week period. In the present school-based study, a convenience sample of 237 adolescents in grade 6-9 and second year in high school (age 12-18 years) was recruited from a city and a smaller town.
