The 1991 paper, "Physical education's role in public health" described the importance of physical education in addressing public health problems. On its 20th anniversary, this article reviews accomplishments in improving the health impact of physical education and identifies areas lacking progress. Major accomplishments include development of evidence-based programs, documentation of health and academic benefits of physical education, and acceptance of physical education as a public health resource. Additional work is needed to evaluate the uptake of evidence-based programs, improve national surveillance of physical education quantity and quality, establish stronger policies supporting active physical education, and achieve wide acceptance of public health goals within the physical education field. These opportunities constitute an agenda for actualizing the promise of health-optimizing physical education before the next 20 year anniversary.
这篇 1991 年的论文题为“体育教育在公共卫生中的作用”,文中阐述了体育教育在解决公共卫生问题方面的重要性。在其二十周年之际,本文回顾了在提高体育教育健康影响力方面所取得的成就,并指出了缺乏进展的领域。主要成就包括开发基于证据的项目、记录体育教育对健康和学业的益处,以及将体育教育视为公共卫生资源的认可。还需要开展额外的工作来评估基于证据的项目的采用情况,改善对体育教育数量和质量的国家监测,制定更强有力的政策来支持积极的体育教育,并在体育教育领域实现广泛接受公共卫生目标。这些机会构成了在未来二十年周年纪念之前实现优化健康的体育教育承诺的议程。
