To explore factors associated with physically active women in a rural community.
Physical activity patterns were assessed in 585 women in rural Alabama.
When combining leisure and nonleisure activities, 68% of women reported > or = 150 minutes per week. Active African American women tended to be younger (AOR 0.97), married (AOR 1.75), less likely to report arthritis (AOR 0.58), or give health (AOR 0.30) or motivational reasons (AOR 0.39) for not being more active; active white women were less likely to report lower health perception (AOR 0.51).
Ethnic differences in factors associated with higher activity levels need to be considered in physical activity interventions.
探讨与农村社区身体活跃女性相关的因素。
对阿拉巴马州农村地区的585名女性的身体活动模式进行了评估。
将休闲和非休闲活动相结合时，68%的女性报告每周活动时间≥150分钟。活跃的非裔美国女性往往更年轻（调整后比值比[AOR]为0.97）、已婚（AOR为1.75），报告患关节炎的可能性较小（AOR为0.58），或者因健康问题（AOR为0.30）或缺乏动力（AOR为0.39）而活动较少的可能性较小；活跃的白人女性报告健康认知较低的可能性较小（AOR为0.51）。
在身体活动干预中，需要考虑与较高活动水平相关因素的种族差异。
