A.豪斯曼。在美国进行身体活动的步行流行病学。医学科学体育Everc.，第35卷，第9期，第100页。1529-1536. 2003.目的：本文的目的是描述美国体力活动研究的受访者中步行进行体力活动的流行病学。研究人员比较了从不步行进行体力活动的人、经常步行的人和偶尔步行的人之间的步行相关性。研究方法：数据石油步行，个人和环境的相关性，并sociodemoraphics收集通过电话使用修改后的随机数字拨号技术的国家样本。分析了三个类别：定期步行者是那些符合公共健康建议的步行者（5x wk（-1），每次30分钟），偶尔步行者是那些为身体活动而步行但不符合此建议的人，从不步行者是那些从不为身体活动而步行的人。计算多因素logistic回归的优势比（OR）和95%置信区间。结果：34%的人经常步行，45.6%偶尔步行，20.7%从不步行。步行者报告说，他们使用附近的街道、购物中心和公园散步。经常散步的人比偶尔或从不散步的人有更多的自信和社会支持。偶尔和从不走路的人比经常走路的人报告时间是一个障碍（OR 1.91和2.36）。从不走路的人更有可能（OR 3.25）报告感觉不健康，更有可能（OR 4.43）报告缺乏锻炼的能量。结论：我们的研究结果确定了重要的信息，可用于帮助指导未来的干预措施，促进步行作为一种身体活动。一种生态方法，结合个人（例如，自信），人际关系（例如，社会支持），以及社区方面（例如，改善街道步行）可能是最有益的。
EYLER, A. A.. R. C. BROWNSON, S. J. BACAK, and R. A. HOUSEMANN. ne Epidemiology of Walking for Physical Activity in the United States. Med. Sci. Sports Everc., Vol. 35, No. 9, pp. 1529-1536. 2003. Purpose: The purpose of this paper was to describe the epidemiology of walking for physical activity among respondents to the U.S. Physical Activity Study. Correlates of walking among people who never walk for physical activity, those who walk regularly, and people who walk occasionally were compared. Methods: Data oil walking, personal and environmental correlates, and sociodemoraphics were collected via telephone using a modified random-digit-dialing technique on a national sample. Three categories were analyzed: Regular walkers were those who met public health recommendations by walking (5x wk(-1) and 30 min at a time), occasional walkers were those who walked for physical activity but did not meet this recommendation, and never walkers were those who never walked for physical activity. Multiple logistic regression resulting in odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Results: Thirty-four percent of this population were regular walkers, 45.6% occasional walkers, and 20.7% never walkers. Walkers reported using neighborhood streets, shopping malls, and parks for walking. Regular walkers had more self-confidence and more social support than occasional or never walkers. Occasional and never walkers reported time as a barrier more than regular walkers (OR 1.91 and 2.36). Never walkers were more likely (OR 3.25) to report feeling unhealthy and more likely (OR 4.43) to report lacking energy to exercise. Conclusion: Our results identify important information that can be used to help guide future interventions that promote walking as a form of physical activity. An ecological approach that combines individual (e.g., self-confidence), interpersonal (e.g., social support), and community aspects (e.g., improve streets for walking) may be the most beneficial.
