: This study examined relationships among multifaceted measures of socioeconomic status (SES) and physical activity (PA) in undergraduates. Participants were classified into dependent and independent tax filers to encapsulate the atypical divide in financial responsibility. : 366 diverse American undergraduates. : Participants completed an online survey including three SES metrics and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. : Participants engaged in the same amount of total PA, albeit different proportions depending on SES measure and PA type. Independent tax filers engaged in more occupational PA than dependent tax filers, regardless of SES. Students with low SES engaged in less leisure-time PA than students with high SES. : Household Material Hardship and SES proxy measures should be considered in the context of tax filing status among undergraduates. Greater precision with multifactorial SES measures will assist in providing the nuanced context when optimizing interventions and reducing barriers to increase PA in young adults.
本研究考察了社会经济地位(SES)和体力活动(PA)多方面测量指标在本科生中的关系。参与者被分为依赖纳税人和独立纳税人,以概括财务责任方面的非典型差异。参与者为 366 名不同的美国本科生。参与者完成了一项在线调查,包括三个 SES 指标和国际体力活动问卷。参与者从事相同数量的总 PA,但根据 SES 测量和 PA 类型的不同比例不同。独立纳税人从事的职业 PA 比依赖纳税人多,无论 SES 如何。低 SES 的学生从事的休闲时间 PA 比高 SES 的学生少。在考虑本科生的纳税状况时,应该考虑家庭物质困难和 SES 替代指标。更精确的多因素 SES 测量将有助于在优化干预措施和减少增加年轻人 PA 的障碍时提供细致入微的背景。
