Mental health is one of the evaluating factors of community indicators, and physical activity is considered an important tool for the importance of public health. Previous studies have demonstrated associations between physical activity and mental health, but these studies did not include those populations in which training children have some traditional and religious aspects.
Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to compare the prevalence of mental health among those who had inactive, minimally and HEPA activity in a representative sample of adolescents aged 15-19 in South of Iran using data from the Mental Health Survey (n=2584). The GHQ-28 and IPAQ-short forms were used to evaluate the mental health and physical activity, respectively.
A total of 2584 adolescents (1401 male and 1178 female) participated in the study. The observed odds of psychological symptoms in boys compared to girls is 1.2 times (p=0.018). We observed that HEPA-activity decreases odds of somatic distress and social dysfunction compared with inactivity (p=0.031 and 0.001, respectively); minimally activity decreases odds of anxiety compared with inactivity (p=0.038); but physical activity rate was not affected on odds of adolescent's depression (p>0.05).
Physical activity decreases mental health subscales except for depression among adolescents in Boushehr, southern city of Iran.
心理健康是社区指标的评估因素之一，体育活动被视为对公众健康至关重要的一项工具。先前的研究已证明体育活动与心理健康之间存在关联，但这些研究未涵盖那些在培养儿童方面具有某些传统和宗教因素的人群。
利用心理健康调查（n = 2584）的数据，采用多元逻辑回归分析，比较伊朗南部15 - 19岁青少年代表性样本中不活动、少量活动和高强度身体活动人群的心理健康患病率。分别使用一般健康问卷-28（GHQ - 28）和国际体力活动问卷简表（IPAQ - short）来评估心理健康和身体活动情况。
共有2584名青少年（1401名男性和1178名女性）参与了该研究。观察发现，男孩出现心理症状的几率是女孩的1.2倍（p = 0.018）。我们观察到，与不活动相比，高强度身体活动降低了躯体困扰和社会功能障碍的几率（分别为p = 0.031和0.001）；少量活动与不活动相比降低了焦虑几率（p = 0.038）；但身体活动率对青少年抑郁几率没有影响（p>0.05）。
在伊朗南部城市布什尔，体育活动能降低青少年除抑郁外的心理健康亚量表得分。
