Active travel (AT) is a core physical activity (PA) indicator for children and youth; contributing to health and wellbeing, at both the individual and societal levels. This analysis explores patterns of adolescent active school travel (AST) and cycling and associations with different PA measures. Secondary analysis of the cross-sectional 2018-2019 Health Behaviour in School Age Children study in Israel included an extended PA module with walking, cycling and e-cycling modes. The nationally representative sample includes students in grades 6-12 ( = 4407). Analysis of weighted data included descriptive analyses, inferential statistics, and regression analyses. AST was reported by 61.9% of adolescents; 39.3% reported 20 min or more daily AST; 27.1% reported habitual cycling (HC) and 17.4% reported habitual e-cycling (HEC). There are mixed results for socio-economic status and environment. AST and HC were associated with less sedentary hours daily (odds ratio [OR] = 1.190 and 1.397, respectively); HC was associated with positive sports self-rating (OR = 2.394). Stepwise regression analysis found that lower AST duration, time in minutes, was associated with watching television with the family. Promotion of adolescent AT may be associated with increased PA and joint parent-adolescent AT, and was utilized across different socio-demographic groups in Israel.
积极出行（AT）是儿童和青少年核心的身体活动（PA）指标；对个人和社会层面的健康和幸福都有贡献。本分析探讨了青少年主动上学出行（AST）和骑自行车的模式，以及与不同 PA 测量指标的关联。对以色列 2018-2019 年“儿童青少年健康行为”研究的横断面二次分析包括了一个扩展的 PA 模块，包含步行、骑自行车和电动自行车模式。这个全国代表性的样本包括 6-12 年级的学生（n=4407）。对加权数据的分析包括描述性分析、推断统计和回归分析。61.9%的青少年报告了 AST；39.3%报告每天有 20 分钟或以上的 AST；27.1%报告习惯性骑自行车（HC），17.4%报告习惯性电动自行车（HEC）。社会经济地位和环境的结果则不一致。AST 和 HC 与每天更少的久坐时间有关（比值比[OR]分别为 1.190 和 1.397）；HC 与积极的体育自我评级有关（OR=2.394）。逐步回归分析发现，AST 持续时间较短，即观看与家人一起看电视的时间较长。促进青少年 AT 可能与增加 PA 和亲子共同的 AT 有关，并且在以色列不同社会人口群体中都有使用。
