To assess awareness about prolonged sitting and acceptance of interventions to reduce bouts of prolonged sitting. Undergraduate, graduate, and professional students and faculty from a large public university. Eight focus groups were conducted with 4 groups of undergraduate students and 4 groups of graduate/professional students. Eight key informant interviews were conducted with faculty. Content analyses were performed using inductive and deductive techniques to elicit common themes. Many students and faculty were not aware of the detrimental effects associated with prolonged sitting. Barriers to movement in university settings included social acceptability, environmental constraints, and academic requirements. Acceptable interventions included: faculty prompts, changes to pedagogy, educational campaigns, and structural changes to classroom designs. University settings represent an opportunity to address issues related to prolonged sitting that may address immediate health implications, as well as establish behaviors and practices that can be continued in work-based settings.
评估对久坐时间延长的认识和对减少长时间久坐干预措施的接受程度。来自一所大型公立大学的本科生、研究生和专业学生及教师。对 4 组本科生和 4 组研究生/专业学生进行了 8 组焦点小组讨论。对 8 名教师进行了关键知情人访谈。使用归纳和演绎技术进行内容分析，以引出共同主题。许多学生和教师都没有意识到长时间坐着会带来不良影响。大学环境中运动的障碍包括社会可接受性、环境限制和学术要求。可接受的干预措施包括：教师提示、教学法的改变、教育活动以及课堂设计的结构性改变。大学环境提供了一个解决与长时间久坐相关问题的机会，这些问题不仅可以解决当前的健康问题，还可以建立在工作场所可以继续的行为和实践。
