New evidence suggests that regular moderate intensity physical activity confers substantial health benefits. This information needs to be conveyed to exercise and sports professionals, as they have a potential lead role in broader public education to encourage physical activity. This study reports data from a survey of attenders at a sports medicine/sports science conference in Sydney in November 1999. Of the 292 who responded, only one third had ever heard of the United States Surgeon General's report on physical activity and health, and 43% had heard of the Active Australia initiative. Those who were members of Sports Medicine Australia (SMA), female or younger responders were more likely to recall Active Australia. An understanding of the moderate physical activity message was highest among sports physicians, and those who already perceived physical activity advice to be part of their role, and lowest among exercise and posrts scientists. The study suggests the need for professional education strategies to be developed in this area for exercise and sports scientists.
新证据表明，定期进行适度强度的体育活动能带来诸多健康益处。这一信息需要传达给运动和体育专业人士，因为他们在更广泛的公众教育中鼓励体育活动方面可能发挥主导作用。本研究报告了1999年11月在悉尼举行的一次运动医学/运动科学会议参会者的调查数据。在292名回复者中，只有三分之一的人曾听说过美国卫生局局长关于体育活动与健康的报告，43%的人听说过“活力澳大利亚”倡议。澳大利亚运动医学协会（SMA）的成员、女性或年轻回复者更有可能记得“活力澳大利亚”。运动医生以及那些已经将体育活动建议视为自身职责一部分的人对适度体育活动信息的理解程度最高，而运动和体育科学家的理解程度最低。该研究表明，需要为运动和体育科学家制定这一领域的专业教育策略。
