Regular physical activity (PA) is important to the health of children and tracks to positive health profiles in adulthood. Parental support of child and youth PA is a key determinant of subsequent behavior, yet the correlates of parental support behaviors are poorly understood. The purpose of this paper was to review and appraise current evidence on the correlates of parental support of child and youth PA as well as describe the measures used to assess parental support.
Literature searches were conducted in September 2019 using ten common databases. Studies included published articles in peer-reviewed journals written in the English language that assessed correlates of parental support for child and youth PA using an observational design.
The initial search yielded 2917 publications, reduced to 22 studies with 19 unique data sets of low-medium quality that met inclusion criteria. Twenty potential correlates had sufficient information for appraisal. Of these, there was evidence that child age (negative association with support), parental social cognitions about support (positive relationship), and neighborhood safety (positive relationship) were reliable correlates. Parental support measurement was extremely varied, yet encouragement, logistical support, and co-participation activity were common elements across most of the measures.
Parental support interventions should target both children and youth and may benefit from continued focus on cognitive-behavioral approaches and parental perceptions of safety risk. Additional research on the inter-personal, environmental, and programmatic correlates of parental support is advised, given the paucity of contemporary research.
规律的体育活动（PA）对儿童健康很重要，且与成年后的积极健康状况相关。父母对儿童和青少年体育活动的支持是后续行为的关键决定因素，但对父母支持行为的相关因素了解甚少。本文旨在回顾和评估当前关于父母对儿童和青少年体育活动支持的相关因素的证据，并描述用于评估父母支持的措施。
2019年9月使用十个常见数据库进行文献检索。研究包括发表在同行评审期刊上的英文文章，这些文章使用观察性设计评估了父母对儿童和青少年体育活动支持的相关因素。
初步检索得到2917篇出版物，筛选后得到22项研究，其中19个独特的低质量数据集符合纳入标准。有20个潜在相关因素有足够的信息进行评估。其中，有证据表明儿童年龄（与支持呈负相关）、父母对支持的社会认知（呈正相关）和邻里安全（呈正相关）是可靠的相关因素。父母支持的测量方法差异极大，但鼓励、后勤支持和共同参与活动是大多数测量方法中的共同要素。
父母支持干预措施应针对儿童和青少年，持续关注认知行为方法以及父母对安全风险的认知可能会有所帮助。鉴于当代研究较少，建议对父母支持的人际、环境和项目相关因素进行更多研究。
