背景许多研究已经报道了运动习惯与学龄儿童健康之间的关系。然而，很少有人研究社会和/或家庭因素作为运动习惯的决定因素。方法本研究的参与者包括2016年1月参与超级Shokuiku学校项目的1721名6至13岁的学龄儿童。进行了一项调查，以评估性别，年级，体育活动，生活方式，整体健康，丰富的学校生活，社会背景，和父母的生活方式。不喜欢和缺乏体力活动被用来衡量不良的运动习惯;相关性进行了分析，使用逻辑回归。结果“缺乏亲密朋友”与不喜欢（校正比值比[OR] 5.30; 95%可信区间[CI]，2.78-10.1）和缺乏体力活动（校正比值比[OR] 5.40; 95%可信区间[CI]，2.81-10.4）的联系最强。此外，长时间接触屏幕和缺乏父母沟通的孩子也往往不喜欢和缺乏体育活动。母亲失业（家庭主妇）、生活方式不健康以及健康状况不佳的儿童也更有可能缺乏体育活动。结论社会和家庭因素（如，有亲密的朋友）可能是学童运动习惯的决定因素，与他们自己的生活方式因素无关。虽然需要进行纵向研究来确定因果关系，但在促进儿童体育活动时，可能需要对这些因素给予大量关注。
Background Many studies have already reported on the relationship between exercise habits and health among schoolchildren. However, few have examined social and/or family factors as determinants of exercise habits. Methods This study's participants included 1721 schoolchildren aged between 6 and 13 who were involved in the Super Shokuiku School Project in January 2016. A survey was conducted to assess gender, grade level, physical activity, lifestyle, overall health, enrichment of school life, social background, and parental lifestyles. Both dislike and lack of physical activity were used to measure poor exercise habits; correlates were analyzed using logistic regression. Results "Lack of close friends" had the strongest links with both dislike (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 5.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.78-10.1) and lack of (adjusted OR 5.40; 95% CI, 2.81-10.4) physical activity. Further, children who engaged in long periods of screen time and lacked parental communication also tended to dislike and lack physical activity. Children with mothers who were unemployed (housewives) and had unhealthy lifestyles, as well as those with poor health, were also more likely to lack physical activity. Conclusion Social and family factors (e.g., having close friends) may be determinants of exercise habits among schoolchildren, independent of their own lifestyle factors. Although a longitudinal study is needed to determine causality, substantial attention may thus be required to these factors when promoting physical activity in children.
