Given the social nature of participation in sport, we hypothesized that club sports participants would have greater well-being and quality of life than participants in other forms of physical activity (PA).
The purpose of this study was to examine health-related quality of life and life satisfaction in women who participate in three contrasting forms of PA: club sport, gym activities, and walking.
This was a cross-sectional study of the relationship between type of PA setting and measures of health-related quality of life (Short-Form Health Survey [SF-36]) and life satisfaction in 818 women living in rural Victoria, Australia, in 2007. Data were also compared with those from a normative sample of 2345 women.
After adjustment for potential confounders (age, education, marital status, children aged <16 yr, perceived financial stress, and level of recreational PA), four of the eight SF-36 subscales, the SF-36 mental health component summary score, and life satisfaction were significantly higher in the club sport group than that in the other groups.
Although cross-sectional research cannot establish causal links, the results suggest that participation in club sport may enhance the health benefits of PA.
鉴于参与体育运动的社交性质,我们假设俱乐部运动参与者比其他形式的体育活动(PA)参与者具有更高的幸福感和生活质量。
本研究的目的是比较俱乐部运动、健身房活动和散步三种不同体育活动方式对女性健康相关生活质量和生活满意度的影响。
这是一项 2007 年在澳大利亚维多利亚州农村地区对 818 名女性进行的横断面研究,探讨了体育活动类型与健康相关生活质量(健康调查短表 [SF-36])和生活满意度之间的关系。数据还与 2345 名女性的常模样本进行了比较。
在调整了潜在混杂因素(年龄、教育程度、婚姻状况、16 岁以下儿童、感知经济压力和休闲体育活动水平)后,俱乐部运动组在 SF-36 的八项子量表中的四项、SF-36 心理健康成分综合评分和生活满意度方面显著高于其他组。
尽管横断面研究不能建立因果关系,但结果表明,参与俱乐部运动可能会增强体育活动的健康益处。
