背景:本研究旨在调查多个年龄组从儿童期和青春期到成年期身体活动的稳定性,并分析儿童期和青春期所测量的各种身体活动变量对成年期身体活动的预测能力。 方法:数据来自“年轻企业心血管风险研究”。该研究始于1980年,当时对随机抽取的年龄分别为3岁、6岁、9岁、12岁、15岁和18岁的男孩和女孩群体(共2309名受试者)进行了首次检查。在1983年、1986年、1989年、1992年和2001年重复进行了测量。2001年,这些受试者(n = 1563,68%)分别为24岁、27岁、30岁、33岁、36岁和39岁。身体活动通过一份简短的自我报告问卷进行测量,该问卷是在体检时单独发放的。根据问卷计算出身体活动指数(PAI)。2001年的参与者和辍学者在1980年的PAI方面没有显著差异。 结果:在21年的追踪期内,斯皮尔曼等级相关系数在男性中从0.33到0.44不等,在女性中从0.14到0.26不等。在较短的时间间隔内,相关性更高。平均而言,女性的追踪相关性低于男性。持续性身体活动,定义为在连续两次或三次测量中PAI处于最活跃的前三分之一,增加了个体在成年期活跃的几率。男性3年持续活动与持续不活动的比值比从4.30到7.10不等,女性从2.90到5.60不等。6年持续活动的相应比值比为8.70到10.80和5.90到9.40。 结论:得出的结论是,9岁到18岁时较高水平的身体活动,尤其是持续的身体活动,显著预测了成年期较高水平的身体活动。尽管相关性较低或适中,但我们认为学龄期身体活动似乎影响成年期身体活动,并进而影响普通人群的公共健康这一点很重要。(《美国预防医学杂志》2005年;28(3):267 - 273)(c)2005年美国预防医学杂志
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate stability of physical activity from childhood and adolescence to adulthood in Multiple age cohorts, and analyze how well adult physical activity can be predicted by various physical activity variables measured in childhood and adolescence.Methods: The data were drawn from the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Firms Study. The study was started in 1980, when cohorts of randomly sampled boys and girls aged 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 years (total of 2309 subjects) were examined for the first time. The measurements were repeated in 1983, 1986, 1989, 1992, and 2001. In 2001, the subjects (n =1563, 68%) were aged 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, and 39 years, respectively. Physical activity was measured by means of a short self-report questionnaire that was administered individually in connection with a medical examination. On the basis of a questionnaire, a physical activity index (PAI) was calculated. There were no significant differences in the 1980 PAI between participants and dropouts in 2001.Results: Spearman's rank order correlation coefficients for the 21-year tracking period varied from 0.33 to 0.44 in males, and from 0.14 to 0.26 in females. At shorter time intervals the correlation was higher. On average, the tracking correlation was lower in females than in males. Persistent physical activity, defined as a score in the most active third of the PAI in two or three consecutive measurements, increased the odds that an individual would be active in adulthood. Odds ratios for 3-year continuous activity versus continuous inactivity varied from 4.30 to 7.10 in males and 2.90 to 5.60 in females. The Corresponding odds ratios for 6-year persistence were 8.70 to 10.80 and 5.90 to 9.40.Conclusions: It was concluded that a high level of physical activity at ages 9 to 18, especially when continuous, significantly predicted a high level of adult physical activity. Although the correlations were low or rnoderate, we consider it important that school-age physical activity appears to influence adult physical activity, and through it, the public health of the general population.
