体育教育（PE）的一个使命是促进愉快的体育活动参与。对414名小学生（51%为男生，77%为白人）进行了为期3年的前瞻性研究。使用广义估计方程进行分析，从四年级到六年级，体育享受显著下降（p < .001），女孩（p < .001）和没有参加有组织体育活动的学生（p < .005）的体育享受更低。种族和身体质量指数不是体育享受的显著预测因子。女孩、年龄较大的儿童和那些没有参加运动队的儿童特别依赖体育作为积累与健康有关的体育活动的环境，需要制定战略来提高他们对体育的享受。
One mission of physical education (PE) is the promotion of enjoyable physical activity participation. PE enjoyment of 414 elementary school students (51% male, 77% Caucasian) was examined in a 3-year prospective study. Analyzed using Generalized Estimating Equations, PE enjoyment decreased significantly from the fourth to sixth grade (p < .001) and was lower among girls (p < .001) and students not in organized sports (p < .005). Ethnicity and body mass index were not significant predictors of PE enjoyment. Girls, older children, and those not on sports teams are especially dependent on PE as the setting for accruing health-related physical activity, and strategies are needed to enhance their PE enjoyment.
