Questionnaires examining behaviors and attitudes related to physical activity and asthma were administered to 408 urban schoolchildren aged 11-13 years. Asthmatics (16% of the sample) were more frequently active and were more anxious prior to exercise than nonasthmatics, but did not differ significantly from nonasthmatics in enjoyment of exercise or in physical self-concept. The motives for performing exercise or sport were similar in the two groups, although the asthmatics perceived less pressure to be active from parents or school than the nonasthmatics. It is concluded that asthmatic children have favorable behaviors and attitudes in relation to exercise and sport.
对408名11至13岁的城市学童进行了问卷调查，调查内容涉及与体育活动及哮喘相关的行为和态度。哮喘患儿（占样本的16%）比非哮喘患儿更经常进行体育活动，且在运动前更焦虑，但在运动乐趣或身体自我概念方面与非哮喘患儿无显著差异。两组进行运动或体育活动的动机相似，不过哮喘患儿感觉到来自父母或学校的运动压力比非哮喘患儿小。研究得出结论，哮喘患儿在运动和体育活动方面具有良好的行为和态度。
