OBJECTIVES
In light of the importance of physical activity, the aim of the present study is to examine the factors affecting participation in physical activity among adults in Malaysia.
METHODS
A logistic regression model and the Third National Health and Morbidity Survey consisting of 30,992 respondents were used.
RESULTS
Age, income, gender, education, marital status, region, house locality, job characteristics, and medical conditions are significantly associated with participation in physical activity. In particular, old individuals, high income earners, females, the well-educated, widowed or divorced individuals, East Malaysians, urban dwellers, the unemployed, and individuals who are not diagnosed with hypercholesterolemia are less likely to be physically active than others.
CONCLUSION
Because sociodemographic and health factors play an important role in determining physical activity, the government should take them into account when formulating policy.
目的
鉴于体育活动的重要性，本研究旨在探讨影响马来西亚成年人参与体育活动的因素。
方法
采用逻辑回归模型以及由30992名受访者组成的第三次全国健康与发病率调查。
结果
年龄、收入、性别、教育程度、婚姻状况、地区、居住地点、工作特征和健康状况与参与体育活动显著相关。特别是，老年人、高收入者、女性、受过良好教育者、丧偶或离异者、东马来西亚人、城市居民、失业者以及未被诊断患有高胆固醇血症的人比其他人进行体育活动的可能性更小。
结论
由于社会人口统计学和健康因素在决定体育活动方面起着重要作用，政府在制定政策时应予以考虑。
