A seat back for an aircraft seat includes an energy absorbing device for permitting movement of the seat back from a first position to a second position when a force is applied to an upper region of the seat back and a guide for guiding movement of the seat back between the first position and the second position. A first connector for connecting the energy absorbing device to the seat back of an aircraft seat and a second connector for connecting the energy absorbing device to the frame of an aircraft seat or a recline mechanism are joined by a breakable member which is configured to break when a predetermined force is applied to move the first connector away from the second connecter.
