在这项研究中，我们探讨了父母对COVID-19居家订单期间儿童身体活动和屏幕时间的看法。我们在密苏里州圣路易斯地区采用雪球抽样法采访了16名5-12岁儿童的父母。我们从农村、城市和郊区取样。访谈记录，转录，并使用先验和紧急代码进行分析。向虚拟学校和工作的过渡改变了日常活动。体育教育要求各不相同，一般被认为无助于全面的体育活动。父母认为身体活动量相同或增加，但报告屏幕时间增加。家庭、庭院和邻里的物理环境成为一个主题，体育活动的社会环境也是如此。COVID-19居家令对儿童的体力活动造成挑战。结果可以用来通知更普遍的研究，并作为基础，创造更好的家长资源，以支持他们的孩子的身体活动以外的普通学校，体育和社区活动的机会。
In this study, we explore parent perception of children’s physical activity and screen time during COVID-19 stay-at-home orders. We interviewed 16 parents of children ages 5–12 years in the St. Louis, Missouri region using snowball sampling. We sampled from rural, urban, and suburban areas. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using a priori and emergent codes. The transition to virtual school and work transformed daily activities. Physical education requirements varied, generally perceived as not contributing to overall physical activity. Parents perceived the amount of physical activity as the same or increased but reported an increase in screen time. The physical environment of the home, yard, and neighborhood emerged as a theme as did the social environment for physical activity. COVID-19 stay-at-home orders created challenges for children’s physical activity. Results can be used to inform more generalizable studies and serve as a basis for creating better parent resources to support their children’s physical activity outside of ordinary school, sport, and community activity opportunities.
