We examined the long-term effects of youth leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and sports participation on the prevalence of chronic work stress in adulthood.
Participants (326 men and 338 women) aged 9 to 18 years were initially enrolled in 1980 and followed until 2007. Data were collected using questionnaires and bicycle ergometry in a subgroup.
High youth LTPA and sports participation predicted lower chronic job strain in both sexes. The association was mediated by type A leadership. Participation and persistence in organized youth sports followed a similar pattern. In the subgroup, adult physical fitness only partly accounted for the association.
Sustained involvement in youth physical activity and sport lasting at least 3 years is associated with reduced chronic job strain in adulthood. The association was partially explained by type A leadership and physical fitness.
本研究旨在探讨青少年闲暇时间体力活动（LTPA）和运动参与对成年期慢性工作压力患病率的长期影响。
参与者（326 名男性和 338 名女性）年龄在 9 至 18 岁之间，最初于 1980 年入组，并随访至 2007 年。研究采用问卷调查和亚组自行车测功仪收集数据。
青少年时期较高的 LTPA 和运动参与可预测男女两性的慢性工作压力降低。这种关联通过 A 型领导方式进行中介。参与和坚持有组织的青年体育运动遵循类似的模式。在亚组中，成人的身体适应性仅部分解释了这种关联。
持续参与青少年体力活动和运动至少 3 年与成年期慢性工作压力降低相关。这种关联部分通过 A 型领导方式和身体适应性来解释。
