Regular active commuting by walking/cycling can help maintain an active lifestyle. The frequency, duration and correlates of school active commuting were examined for primary school children in NSW, Australia. Walking/cycling-only and in combination with bus/car were of short duration (median 7 or 4 min, respectively) and their frequency dropped within a short distance (>0.75 km) from school. Apart from distance, child's age, school affiliation and perceived safety, regular walking/cycling (10 trips, 22%) was associated with parents' travel mode to work and with father taking the child to school. Frequent walking/cycling (5 trips, 37%) was associated with child's level of independence and the perceived benefits of active commuting. Behaviour change in this setting requires multi-level strategies.
经常通过步行/骑自行车进行主动通勤有助于保持积极的生活方式。对澳大利亚新南威尔士州的小学生进行了学校主动通勤的频率、时长及相关因素调查。仅步行/骑自行车以及与乘坐公交车/汽车相结合的通勤时长较短(中位数分别为7分钟或4分钟),且在离学校较短距离(>0.75公里)内其频率就会下降。除距离、孩子年龄、学校归属和感知到的安全性外,经常步行/骑自行车(10次出行,占22%)与父母的上班出行方式以及父亲送孩子上学有关。频繁步行/骑自行车(5次出行,占37%)与孩子的独立程度以及主动通勤的感知益处有关。在这种情况下,行为改变需要多层次策略。
