Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The participants were older than 12 years of age. Before the survey, the school principals provided participants’ parents with the details of the survey. The parents were advised that they were allowed to refuse participation if they were reluctant to allow their children to take part in the survey. In other words, the parents were given the opportunity to opt their children out of the survey if they were not comfortable with them participating in the survey. The students whose parents refused permission for the survey were not included. This survey and opt out parental consent procedure were approved by the Ethics Review Committee of Tottori University Faculty of Medicine (reference no. 17A078).
