Increasing mental load and inadequate stress management significantly affect the efficiency, success and safety of the educational/working process in adolescents. The objective of this study is to determine the extent that adolescents compensate for their school mental load by physical activity (PA) on weekend days and, thus, to contribute to the objective measurement of mental load in natural working conditions.
A cross-sectional study was conducted between September 2013 and April 2014. A set of different methods was employed-self-administered questionnaire (IPAQ-long questionnaire), objective measurements-pedometers, and accelerometers (ActiTrainers). They was distributed to 548 students from 17 high schools. Participants' mental load was assessed based on the difference between PA intensity and/or physical inactivity and heart rate range.
The participants with the highest mental load during school lessons do not compensate for this load by PA on weekend days.
Adolescents need to be encouraged to be aware of their subjective mental load and to intentionally compensate for this load by PA on weekend days. It is necessary to support the process of adopting habits by sufficient physical literacy of students, as well as teachers, and by changes in the school program.
精神负担加重和压力管理不足显著影响青少年教育/工作过程的效率、成功率和安全性。本研究的目的是确定青少年在周末通过体育活动（PA）补偿其学业精神负担的程度，从而有助于在自然工作条件下对精神负担进行客观测量。
于2013年9月至2014年4月进行了一项横断面研究。采用了一套不同的方法——自我管理问卷（IPAQ长问卷）、客观测量工具——计步器和加速度计（活动记录仪）。将这些工具分发给来自17所高中的548名学生。根据PA强度和/或缺乏身体活动与心率范围之间的差异评估参与者的精神负担。
在学校课程期间精神负担最重的参与者在周末并未通过PA来补偿这种负担。
需要鼓励青少年意识到他们的主观精神负担，并在周末有意通过PA来补偿这种负担。有必要通过提高学生以及教师的身体素养，并通过学校课程的改变来支持养成习惯的过程。
