目标。这项研究调查了具有代表性的美国青少年的体育活动和其他健康行为之间的关系。在1990年的青少年危险行为调查中，11631名高中生提供了有关体育活动、饮食、药物使用和其他负面健康行为的信息。Logistic回归分析考察了2652名高运动量学生和1641名低运动量学生的体力活动与其他健康行为之间的关系。低活动量与吸烟、大麻使用、水果和蔬菜摄入量较低、看电视时间较长、不系安全带以及对学习成绩的认知度较低有关。在食用水果、看电视和饮酒方面，种族/民族或性别之间存在显著的交互作用，这表明社会文化因素可能会影响身体活动与某些健康行为之间的关系。在青少年中，低体力活动与其他几种负面健康行为有关。未来的研究应该检查增加青少年体育活动的干预措施是否能够有效地减少消极的健康行为。
Objectives. This study examined the associations between physical activity and other health behaviors in a representative sample of US adolescents.Methods. In the 1990 Youth Risk Behavior Survey, 11 631 high school students provided information on physical activity; diet; substance use; and other negative health behaviors. Logistic regression analyses examined associations between physical activity and other health behaviors in a subset of 2652 high-active and 1641 low-active students.Results. Low activity was associated with cigarette smoking, marijuana use, lower fruit and vegetable consumption, greater television watching, failure to wear a seat belt, and low perception of academic performance. For consumption of fruit, television watching, and alcohol consumption, significant interactions were found with race/ethnicity or sex, suggesting that sociocultural factors may affect the relationships between physical activity and some health behaviors.Conclusions. Low physical activity was associated with several other negative health behaviors in teenagers. Future studies should examine whether interventions for increasing physical activity in youth can be effective in reducing negative health behaviors.
