Few studies have explored associations of individual, social, and environmental factors with physical activity and walking behavior.
A random-digit-dial questionnaire, which included selected individual, social, and environmental variables, was administered to 2025 adults, age 18 y and older, in two adjacent counties in a southeastern state. Logistic regressions were conducted adjusting for age, race, sex, education, and employment.
In multivariate models, somewhat different variables were associated with physical activity versus regular walking. Self-efficacy (OR = 19.19), having an exercise partner (OR = 1.47), recreation facilities (OR = 1.54), and safety of trails from crime (OR = 0.72) were associated with physical activity level; while self-efficacy (OR = 4.22), known walking routes (OR = 1.54), recreation facilities (OR = 1.57-1.59), and safety of trails from crime (OR = 0.69) were associated with regular walking behavior.
Physical activity and walking behaviors were associated with similar variables in this study.
很少有研究探讨个人、社会和环境因素与身体活动及步行行为之间的关联。
对东南部一个州相邻两个县的2025名18岁及以上成年人进行了一项随机数字拨号问卷调查,问卷包括选定的个人、社会和环境变量。进行了逻辑回归分析,并对年龄、种族、性别、教育程度和就业情况进行了调整。
在多变量模型中,与身体活动和经常步行相关的变量略有不同。自我效能感(比值比=19.19)、有运动伙伴(比值比=1.47)、娱乐设施(比值比=1.54)以及步道免受犯罪侵害的安全性(比值比=0.72)与身体活动水平相关;而自我效能感(比值比=4.22)、已知的步行路线(比值比=1.54)、娱乐设施(比值比=1.57 - 1.59)以及步道免受犯罪侵害的安全性(比值比=0.69)与经常步行行为相关。
在本研究中,身体活动和步行行为与相似的变量相关。
