目的：对初中女生身体活动的学校气氛进行测量。方法：采用验证性因素分析（CFA）和结构方程模型（SEM）.结果：CFA保留了14个原始项目中的5个。一个包含两个相关因素的模型，分别是对教师和男孩的行为的看法，在六年级和八年级的数据拟合良好。SEM检测到一个积极的，显着的直接关联的教师因素，但不是男孩的因素，与女孩的自我报告的身体活动。结论：女童体育活动的学校氛围是一个可衡量的概念，初步证据表明与体育活动有关。
Objectives: To test an original scale assessing perceived school climate for girls' physical activity in middle school girls. Methods: Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results: CFA retained 5 of 14 original items. A model with 2 correlated factors, perceptions about teachers' and boys' behaviors, respectively, fit the data well in both sixth and eighth graders. SEM detected a positive, significant direct association of the teacher factor, but not the boy factor, with girls' self-reported physical activity. Conclusions: School climate for girls' physical activity is a measurable construct, and preliminary evidence suggests a relationship with physical activity.
