Household confinement due to the rapid spread of the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has brought very significant changes, such as the forced stay-at-home of children due to the closure of schools. This has meant drastic changes in the organization of daily life and restrictions on their activities, including exercise, which could affect the quality of life of the children due to its importance. In order to study the relationship between physical activity and psychological well-being of minors, a study has been carried out with Mixed Methods Research, combining survey methodology with transversal design with qualitative methodology using discourse analysis. A total of 234 parents of minors in Spain and several Spanish-speaking countries in America participated. The instrument was a questionnaire in Google Forms, which included the Kidscreen-27 quality of life scale. The results show significant differences in both the type of physical activity and its frequency due to age, and differences in parents' perception of whether their children's physical activity levels were sufficient or not, both on the health, mood and school subscales, and in the categorization of open responses referring to concerns due to the pandemic, analyzed with the ALCESTE technique. The relationship between physical activity of children and adolescents and quality of life is clearly concluded.
由于新冠疫情迅速蔓延导致的居家隔离带来了非常显著的变化，比如学校关闭致使孩子们被迫居家。这意味着日常生活安排发生了巨大变化，他们的活动受到限制，包括锻炼，而锻炼因其重要性可能会影响孩子们的生活质量。为了研究未成年人身体活动与心理健康之间的关系，开展了一项混合方法研究，将调查方法与横向设计相结合，并运用话语分析的定性方法。共有来自西班牙以及美洲几个讲西班牙语国家的234名未成年人的家长参与。工具是谷歌表单中的一份问卷，其中包括儿童生活质量量表Kidscreen - 27。结果显示，由于年龄不同，身体活动的类型及其频率存在显著差异，而且在健康、情绪和学校子量表方面，以及在使用ALCESTE技术分析的、针对因疫情引发担忧的开放性回答分类中，家长对孩子身体活动水平是否足够的认知也存在差异。明确得出了儿童和青少年的身体活动与生活质量之间的关系。
