致肥环境对青少年健康的影响尚不清楚。这项研究考察了与体育活动相关的邻里特征是否也与不健康的体重状况有关。青少年（N = 4587，年龄15-17岁，51.4%男性）自我报告的身体活动和邻里感知。训练有素的研究人员测量了他们的身高和体重。逻辑回归确定邻里感知是否预示超重或肥胖。在控制了社会人口变量和学校聚类后，报告有便利体育活动设施的青少年超重/肥胖的可能性降低了2%，肥胖的可能性降低了5%。体育活动似乎没有直接影响或调解感知便利设施和体重状况之间的关系。2009爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
The impact of obesogenic environments on adolescent health is poorly understood. This study examines if neighbourhood features related to physical activity are also related to unhealthy weight status. Adolescents (N = 4587, age 15-17 years, 51.4% male) self-reported physical activity and neighbourhood perceptions. Trained researchers measured height and weight. Logistic regression identified if neighbourhood perceptions predicted overweight or obesity. Adolescents who reported convenient physical activity facilities were 2% less likely to be overweight/obese and 5% less likely to be obese, controlled for socio-demographic variables and clustering by school. Physical activity does not appear to directly influence or mediate the relationship between perceived convenient facilities and weight status. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
