Physical activity is one of the most important self-care approaches to controlling complications of type 2 diabetes. According to Bandura's social theory, factors such as social support are effective factors in the incidence of the behaviour.
This study aims to determine the level of physical activity, social support and their determinants.
This descriptive study was performed on 250 patients with type 2 diabetes by Cluster-Random Sampling method in Rafsanjan City. Data were collected using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and Social Support Questionnaire for Sport, that their validity and reliability were confirmed. The results were analysed by t-test, ANOVA and logistic regression.
This study showed that 46.8% of the patients were in the inactive group. Social support score for exercise was low in this group. The results indicated that social support and gender are predictors of physical activity, and with an increase in the social support score, the odds of having minimal physical activity increased 1.17 fold (OR = 1.167) and men were 4.18 times more likely to have minimal physical activity (OR = 4.183).
Considering the low level of physical activity and social support in diabetic patients, and the effect of social support on the prediction of physical activity, interventions are recommended to increase social support in this group.
体育活动是控制2型糖尿病并发症最重要的自我护理方法之一。根据班杜拉的社会理论，社会支持等因素是该行为发生的有效因素。
本研究旨在确定体育活动水平、社会支持及其决定因素。
本描述性研究采用整群随机抽样法，对拉夫桑詹市250例2型糖尿病患者进行。使用国际体育活动问卷和体育社会支持问卷收集数据，其效度和信度得到确认。结果采用t检验、方差分析和逻辑回归进行分析。
本研究表明，46.8%的患者处于不活动组。该组运动的社会支持得分较低。结果表明，社会支持和性别是体育活动的预测因素，随着社会支持得分的增加，最少进行体育活动的几率增加1.17倍（OR = 1.167），男性最少进行体育活动的可能性是女性的4.18倍（OR = 4.183）。
考虑到糖尿病患者体育活动水平和社会支持较低，以及社会支持对体育活动预测的影响，建议采取干预措施增加该群体的社会支持。
