作者以 145 名加拿大本科生为样本,调查了从高中到大学一年级过渡期间的剧烈身体活动和心理健康状况。参与者完成了评估大学前 2 个月和高中最后 2 个月剧烈体育活动的回顾性措施以及评估心理健康的措施。根据国家推荐的(美国卫生与公共服务部)标准,三分之二 (66.2%) 的学生表示在高中时进行了足够的剧烈活动,而在大学的前 8 周内达到标准的学生则要少得多 (44.1%)。三分之一的学生在高中时很活跃,但进入大学后就变得不够活跃; 33% 的人在这两个时期都处于活跃状态; 23% 始终未达到建议水平;只有 11% 的人在大学时期就开始活跃起来。与继续活动的学生相比,活动不足的学生表现出更高的疲劳程度和更低的活力。
The authors investigated vigorous physical activity and psychological well-being during transition from high school to first-year university in a sample of 145 Canadian undergraduates. Participants completed retrospective measures assessing vigorous physical activity during their first 2 months at university and their last 2 months at high school as well as measures assessing psychological well-being. According to nationally recommended (US Department of Health and Human Services) standards, two thirds (66.2%) of students reported adequate levels of vigorous activity in high school, whereas significantly fewer (44.1%) met the standard during their first 8 weeks at university. One third of students were active in high school but became insufficiently active once at university; 33% were active at both times; 23% consistently fell short of recommended levels; and only 11% became active once at university. Students who had become insufficiently active reported higher levels of fatigue and lower levels of vigor compared with those who continued to be active.
