Immigrant women are less likely to be physically active and face many barriers to participation in physical activity. This systematic review aims to identify the influencing factors and adaption approaches of physical activity interventions among midlife immigrant women. A systematic literature search was performed using various databases, such as MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL, in February 2021. Studies were included if they investigated midlife immigrant women participating in physical activity interventions and were published in an English peer-reviewed journal in or after 2000. Twenty-two papers were included in this review. Guided by the Ecosocial theory, thematic analysis was utilized for data analysis. Among midlife immigrant women, influencing factors associated with physical activity participation included individual factors (a lack of time, current health status, motivation, and a lack of proficiency in various life skills), familial factors (familial support and seasonality), and community factors (social support and neighbourhood environment). The appropriate adaptation of physical activity interventions included adjustments in language, physical activity intensity, physical activity duration, logistical intervention adjustments and other potential technology-based adjustments. The findings can inform community stakeholders, healthcare professionals and researchers to design appropriate physical activity interventions that meet the needs of midlife immigrant women and improve their health outcomes.
移民女性进行体育活动的可能性较小,且在参与体育活动方面面临诸多障碍。本系统综述旨在确定中年移民女性体育活动干预的影响因素和适应方法。2021年2月,我们使用多个数据库(如MEDLINE、PsycINFO和CINAHL)进行了系统的文献检索。如果研究调查了参与体育活动干预的中年移民女性,并发表于2000年及以后的英文同行评审期刊上,则纳入研究。本综述纳入了22篇论文。在生态社会理论的指导下,采用主题分析法进行数据分析。在中年移民女性中,与体育活动参与相关的影响因素包括个人因素(缺乏时间、当前健康状况、动机以及缺乏各种生活技能的熟练度)、家庭因素(家庭支持和季节性)以及社区因素(社会支持和邻里环境)。体育活动干预的适当调整包括语言调整、体育活动强度调整、体育活动持续时间调整、后勤干预调整以及其他基于技术的潜在调整。这些研究结果可为社区利益相关者、医疗保健专业人员和研究人员提供参考,以设计出满足中年移民女性需求并改善其健康状况的适当体育活动干预措施。
