The aim of this study is to explore if perception of an activity-friendly environment is associated with more physical activity and fewer screen-based activities among adolescents. We collected self-reported data in 2014 via the Health Behavior in School-aged Children cross-sectional study from four European countries ( = 13,800, mean age = 14.4, 49.4% boys). We explored the association of perceived environment (e.g., "There are other children nearby home to go out and play with") with physical activity and screen-based activities using a binary logistic regression model adjusted for age, gender, family affluence and country. An environment perceived as activity-friendly was associated with higher odds that adolescents meet recommendations for physical activity (odds ratio (OR) for one standard deviation (SD) change = 1.11, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-1.18) and lower odds for excessive screen-based activities (OR for 1 SD better = 0.93, 95% CI 0.88-0.98). Investment into an activity-friendly environment may support the promotion of active life styles in adolescence.
本研究的目的是探讨对适宜活动环境的认知是否与青少年更多的体育活动和更少的基于屏幕的活动相关。2014年，我们通过对来自四个欧洲国家（n = 13800，平均年龄 = 14.4岁，49.4%为男孩）的学龄儿童健康行为进行横断面研究，收集了自我报告的数据。我们使用经年龄、性别、家庭富裕程度和国家调整的二元逻辑回归模型，探讨了感知环境（例如，“家附近有其他孩子可以一起出去玩”）与体育活动和基于屏幕的活动之间的关联。被认为适宜活动的环境与青少年达到体育活动建议的较高几率相关（一个标准差（SD）变化的优势比（OR） = 1.11，95%置信区间（CI）1.05 - 1.18），而与过度基于屏幕的活动的较低几率相关（一个标准差更好的OR = 0.93，95% CI 0.88 - 0.98）。对适宜活动环境的投入可能有助于促进青少年的积极生活方式。
