Objective.描述英国成年人积极参与交通的患病率和社会人口统计学相关因素。数据来自2005年英国时间使用调查。主动交通被定义为任何步行，慢跑或骑自行车的目的以外的享受。社会人口相关的任何积极的交通参与，满足目前英国的指导方针，通过积极的交通足够的活动，和时间花在积极的交通，如果有的话，进行了探讨。4941人参加了调查，80%的数据被纳入分析。28%的受访者报告任何主动运输，19%的人通过主动运输充分活跃。主动转运（如有）的中位时间为每天40分钟（四分位数间距为20-60分钟）。年轻人和那些没有汽车或货车的人更积极地参与交通。通过主动交通充分活跃还与失业、处于不太富裕的社会阶层以及在老年时离开全日制教育有关。在联合王国，增加积极的交通参与还有余地。超过三分之二的人谁报告任何主动运输是足够活跃的主动运输本身可能是一个有用的健康促进信息。(C)2010年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Objective. To describe prevalence, and socio-demographic correlates, of active transport participation amongst UK adults.Methods. Data was from the 2005 UK Time Use Survey. Active transport was defined as any walking, jogging or pedal biking for purposes other than enjoyment. Socio-demographic correlates of any active transport participation, meeting current UK guidelines for sufficient activity through active transport, and time spent on active transport, if any, were explored.Results. 4941 individuals took part in the survey and data from 80% were included in the analyses. 28% of respondents reported any active transport and 19% were sufficiently active through active transport. Median time spent in active transport, if any, was 40 min per day (inter-quartile range 20-60 min). Active transport participation was greater in younger people and those without access to a car or van. Being sufficiently active through active transport was additionally associated with being unemployed, being in a less affluent social class, and leaving full time education at an older age.Conclusions. There is scope for increasing active transport participation in the UK. That more than two thirds of those who report any active transport are sufficiently active through active transport alone may be a useful health promotion message. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.
