The aim of this study was to determine compliance with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) guideline for physical activity and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommendation for electronic media use among urban pre-school children in two large cities on the East Coast of Australia. Cross-sectional data were collected from 266 parents. Time spent using electronic media (watching television, DVDs or on the computer) and in physical activity were parent reported. The proportion who met each guideline was calculated. 56 per cent and 79% of children met the NASPE guideline on weekdays and weekends, respectively, while 73% and 70% met the AAP recommendation on weekdays and weekends, with no difference between boys and girls. A substantial minority do not meet physical activity and electronic media use recommendations, highlighting the need to better understand what factors contribute to physical activity and electronic media use among this group of pre-schoolers.
本研究的目的是确定澳大利亚东海岸两个大城市的城市学龄前儿童对美国国家体育与体育教育协会（NASPE）身体活动指南以及美国儿科学会（AAP）电子媒体使用建议的遵循情况。从266名家长处收集了横断面数据。家长报告了孩子使用电子媒体（看电视、DVD或使用电脑）和进行身体活动的时间。计算了符合各项指南的儿童比例。分别有56%和79%的儿童在工作日和周末符合NASPE指南，而在工作日和周末分别有73%和70%的儿童符合AAP建议，男孩和女孩之间没有差异。相当一部分儿童未达到身体活动和电子媒体使用建议，这凸显了有必要更好地了解哪些因素影响了这群学龄前儿童的身体活动和电子媒体使用情况。
