目的。检查感知的邻里特征、活动场所的可达性和休闲时间体育活动之间的关联。设计。横断面电话调查。设置。北卡罗来纳州的卡巴勒斯县、亨德森县、皮特县、罗伯森县、萨里县和威克县。对居住在六个县的 1796 名 18 岁以上成年人进行基于人口的抽样调查。措施。这份包含 133 项内容的调查问卷评估了自我报告的休闲时间身体活动和对社区特征（人行道、小径、交通繁忙、路灯、无人看管的狗和犯罪安全）的看法以及前往身体活动场所的一般情况。结果。特征、路灯和前往场所的途径与从事任何休闲活动呈正相关：未经调整的比值比 (OR)（95% 置信区间 [CI]）；分别为 1.62 (1.09-2.41)、1.57 (1.14-2.17) 和 2.94 (1.91-4.52)。步道和到达地点与从事建议的休闲活动量呈正相关：分别为 1.49 (1.00-2.22) 和 2.28 (1.30-4.00)。在包括环境因素和人口统计在内的多变量逻辑回归模型中，前往地点的途径与任何活动 (2.23 [1.44-3.44]) 和推荐活动 (2.15 [1.23-3.77]) 相关，路径与推荐活动 (1.51 [1.00-2.28]) 相关。结论。某些社区特征，特别是小径，以及前往体育活动场所的通道可能与休闲活动水平相关。在这项研究中，感知到的社区环境因素和体育活动场所与种族、教育和收入密切相关。
Purpose. To examine associations between perceived neighborhood characteristics, access to places for activity, and leisure-time physical activity.Design. Cross-sectional telephone survey.Setting. Cabarrus, Henderson, Pitt, Robeson, Surry, and Wake counties in North Carolina.Subjects. Population-based sample of 1796 adults at least 18 years of age residing in the six counties.Measures. The 133-item questionnaire assessed self-reported leisure-time physical activity and perceptions of neighborhood characteristics (sidewalks, trails, heavy traffic, streetlights, unattended dogs, and safety from crime) and general access to places for physical activity.Results. Traits, streetlights, and access to places were positively associated with engaging in any Leisure activity: unadjusted odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval [CI]); 1.62 (1.09-2.41), 1.57 (1.14-2.17), and 2.94 (1.91-4.52), respectively. Trails and access to places were positively associated with engaging in the recommended amount of Leisure activity: 1.49 (1.00-2.22), and 2.28 (1.30-4.00), respectively). In multivariable logistic regression modeling including environmental factors and demographics, access to places was associated with any activity (2.23 [1.44-3.44]) and recommended activity (2.15 [1.23-3.77]), and trails were associated with recommended activity (1.51 [1.00-2.28]).Conclusion. Certain neighborhood characteristics, particularly trails, and access to places for physical activity may be associated with leisure activity levels. In this study, perceived neighborhood environmental factors and access to places for physical activity were strongly associated with race, education, and income.
