There are several well-known risk factor monitoring systems, but few examples of comprehensive surveillance systems designed specifically to inform physical activity (PA) policy. This paper examines the utility of Canada`s Physical Activity and Sport Monitoring System in guiding policy and practice.
Indicators were determined in conjunction with government, nongovernmental associations and academics. Serial measures were collected from representative population (telephone interviews, n = 4000 to 11,000) and setting-based (postal surveys, n = 1425 to 4304) surveys.
Adult PA was higher in 2014 (47%) than 1998 (37%). The prevalence of knowledge about sufficient PA to meet national guidelines increased (31% to 57%). Most adults (66%) reported having many safe places to walk locally. Having policies to encourage walking and cycling when redeveloping communities increased by community size (5% to 37%). PA promotion was available in 10% to 15% of workplaces. Most parents (64%) provided transportation to support their child's PA. The prevalence of policies mandating daily PE increased 2001 to 2011 (36% to 55%), as did having no policy to hire qualified PE teachers (25% to 34%).
Canada's surveillance system has provided information for guiding policy planning, resource allocation, setting and tracking national goals, assessing changes in PA determinants, and evaluating national campaigns, naturally occurring experiments, and innovative policies.
有几种知名的风险因素监测系统,但专门为体育活动(PA)政策提供信息的综合监测系统实例却很少。本文探讨了加拿大体育活动与运动监测系统在指导政策和实践方面的效用。
与政府、非政府协会和学者共同确定指标。从代表性人群(电话访谈,n = 4000至11000)和基于场所(邮政调查,n = 1425至4304)的调查中收集系列数据。
2014年成年人的体育活动参与率(47%)高于1998年(37%)。知晓达到国家指南所规定的充足体育活动量的人群比例有所增加(从31%增至57%)。大多数成年人(66%)表示当地有许多安全的步行场所。在社区重建时制定鼓励步行和骑自行车政策的情况随社区规模增加(从5%增至37%)。10%至15%的工作场所提供体育活动推广。大多数家长(64%)提供交通支持孩子参加体育活动。2001年至2011年,强制要求每日体育课的政策普及率上升(从36%升至55%),没有聘用合格体育教师政策的情况也有所变化(从25%降至34%)。
加拿大的监测系统为指导政策规划、资源分配、设定和跟踪国家目标、评估体育活动决定因素的变化以及评估全国性运动、自然实验和创新政策提供了信息。
