由于年龄较大的青少年的体力活动水平有可能通过刺激积极的上学交通工具(ATS)而增加，因此在制定干预措施之前，应该确定ATS最重要的相关因素，特别是在那些距离学校适合积极通勤的青少年中。本研究的主要目的是确定比利时大龄青少年ATS的标准距离，检验居住在离学校可行距离内的青少年ATS的多维度相关性，并调查ATS与总体力活动和除ATS之外的其他体力活动的关系。来自东西佛兰德地区20所普通中学的1281名17-18岁的老年青少年完成了一份关于体育活动行为、人口统计因素以及心理社会和身体环境与体育活动的相关性的问卷。使用Routenet在线路线规划器客观地测量到学校的距离。总体而言，58.4%的参与者积极通勤上学。ATS的标准距离可以设定为骑自行车8公里，步行2公里。对于那些居住在ATS可行距离内的青少年，性别、吸烟状况、社区步行能力和社会模范与交通方式选择有关。ATS与总的体力活动呈正相关，与其他体力活动的分钟/周相关不显著。对于居住在学校8公里以内的大龄青少年来说，考虑到与ATS相关的干预措施可能有效地增强ATS并增加总的体力活动水平。在青春期整体体力活动减少的背景下，可能还需要针对居住在离学校较远的青少年的体力活动行为的干预措施，但这些干预措施可能应该强调替代战略。
Since physical activity levels in older adolescents have the potential to be increased by stimulating active transportation to school (ATS), the most important correlates of ATS should be determined before developing interventions, especially in those adolescents for whom the distance to school is feasible for active commuting. The main aims of this study were to determine criterion distances for ATS in Belgian older adolescents, to examine multidimensional correlates of ATS in adolescents living within a feasible distance from school and to investigate the associations of ATS with total physical activity and with other physical activities besides ATS. In total, 1281 older adolescents (17-18 years) from 20 general secondary schools in East- and West-Flanders completed a questionnaire on physical activity behaviors, demographic factors and psychosocial and physical environmental correlates of physical activity. Distance to school was objectively measured using Routenet online route planner. In total, 58.4% of the participants commuted actively to school. The criterion distance for ATS could be set at eight kilometers for cycling and two kilometers for walking. For those adolescents living within a feasible distance for ATS, gender, smoking status, walkability of the neighborhood and social modeling were associated with transportation mode choice. ATS was positively associated with total physical activity, but not significantly related to min/week of other physical activities. For older adolescents living within eight kilometers of their school, interventions taking into account the correlates found to be related to ATS could possibly be effective to enhance ATS and to increase total physical activity levels. In the context of the overall physical activity decline in adolescence, also interventions targeting physical activity behaviors of adolescents living further away from school might be needed, but these interventions should probably emphasize alternative strategies.
