The study examines the impact of parental perception of children's weight and parental support on children's physical activity (PA) by weight groups. Multivariate regressions of parental perception of children's weight, parental support, and children's PA were conducted using parent-reported survey data. Results show that parental support was positively associated with children's PA. The impact of parental perception on children's PA and parenting behaviors varied depending on children's actual weight status. Parents may need more education and help to increase their knowledge about children's healthy weight and the problems associated with being outside the healthy weight zone.
本研究通过体重分组考察了父母对孩子体重的感知和父母支持对孩子身体活动（PA）的影响。利用父母报告的调查数据，对父母对孩子体重的感知、父母支持以及孩子 PA 进行了多元回归分析。结果表明，父母支持与孩子 PA 呈正相关。父母对孩子 PA 和养育行为的影响因孩子的实际体重状况而异。父母可能需要更多的教育和帮助来增加他们对孩子健康体重和超重相关问题的了解。
