BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the associations between physical fitness (PF) and psychosocial aspects of health. This study aimed to analyse the associations between self-reported PF and self-rated health (SRH), life-satisfaction (LS), and quality of life (QoL).
This is a cross-sectional study of 3554 adolescents (1652 boys), aged 13-18, from the HBSC Portuguese survey. PF, health, LS and OoL were self-rated.
SRH, LS, and health-related OoL (HRQoL) were significantly and positively correlated with all PF components. From regression model, overall fitness was significantly related with SRH (boys: β = 0.18, < 0.001; girls: β = 0.16, < 0.001), LS (boys: β = 0.36, < 0.001; girls: β = 0.43, < 0.001), and HRQoL (boys: β = 2.26, < 0.001; girls: β = 2.54, < 0.001). Cardiorespiratory fitness was also positively and significantly related with SRH (boys: β = 0.17, < 0.001; girls: β = 0.11, < 0.001), LS (boys: β = 0.13, < 0.05; girls: β = 0.31, < 0.001), and HRQoL (boys: β = 1.74, < 0.001; girls: β = 1.57, < 0.001).
These findings suggest that perceived PF is associated with a better SRH, LS, and perceived HRQoL. A few implications regarding public policies were highlighted.
背景/目的：近年来，人们对身体健康（PF）与健康的心理社会方面之间的关联越来越感兴趣。本研究旨在分析自我报告的PF与自我评估健康状况（SRH）、生活满意度（LS）和生活质量（QoL）之间的关联。
这是一项对来自葡萄牙健康行为与学校生活调查（HBSC）的3554名13 - 18岁青少年（1652名男孩）进行的横断面研究。PF、健康状况、LS和生活质量均为自我评估。
SRH、LS和与健康相关的生活质量（HRQoL）与所有PF成分均呈显著正相关。从回归模型来看，总体健康状况与SRH显著相关（男孩：β = 0.18，< 0.001；女孩：β = 0.16，< 0.001）、与LS显著相关（男孩：β = 0.36，< 0.001；女孩：β = 0.43，< 0.001）以及与HRQoL显著相关（男孩：β = 2.26，< 0.001；女孩：β = 2.54，< 0.001）。心肺适能也与SRH呈显著正相关（男孩：β = 0.17，< 0.001；女孩：β = 0.11，< 0.001）、与LS呈显著正相关（男孩：β = 0.13，< 0.05；女孩：β = 0.31，< 0.001）以及与HRQoL呈显著正相关（男孩：β = 1.74，< 0.001；女孩：β = 1.57，< 0.001）。
这些发现表明，感知到的PF与更好的SRH、LS以及感知到的HRQoL相关。文中强调了一些关于公共政策的启示。
