A comprehensive understanding of research on the physical activity (PA) of Hong Kong youth is necessary to develop specific and effective intervention strategies. This review summarizes existing evidence in studies on PA among the Hong Kong youth. An electronic literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, SPORTDiscus, ERIC, and HighWire database. Forty-five studies published from 1987 to 2012 were included in this review. The findings are presented in five categories, namely, health benefits of PA, participation in PA, assessment of PA, correlates of PA, and interventions to promote PA. The results indicate that PA among the youth in Hong Kong has attracted concern in the past decade. Specifically, extensive studies focused on the areas of health benefits of PA, participation in PA, and correlates of PA. Research into context-specific correlates of PA and tailored PA promotion programs for the Hong Kong youth is warranted in the future.
要制定具体且有效的干预策略，全面了解香港青少年体育活动（PA）的研究是必要的。本综述总结了香港青少年体育活动研究中的现有证据。使用MEDLINE、SPORTDiscus、ERIC和HighWire数据库进行了电子文献检索。本综述纳入了1987年至2012年发表的45项研究。研究结果分为五类，即体育活动的健康益处、体育活动参与情况、体育活动评估、体育活动的相关因素以及促进体育活动的干预措施。结果表明，过去十年香港青少年的体育活动受到了关注。具体而言，广泛的研究集中在体育活动的健康益处、体育活动参与情况以及体育活动的相关因素等领域。未来有必要针对香港青少年体育活动的特定相关因素以及量身定制的体育活动促进计划进行研究。
