Rural environments present many barriers to regular physical activity (PA), and residents who live in these communities are at higher risk for a variety of health issues.
We used community-based participatory research (CBPR) to guide the development of project interventions and enhance partnerships within the communities.
University-community partnerships, including Extension professionals, were used to gather data from twenty key informants in two West Virginia counties.
Respondents identified "places" as both barriers (lack of access or quality) and assets in their communities. "Community culture" was identified as a significant barrier. Solutions that emerged from the data include "new/enhanced places" or "events/programs".
These data supported the notion that there are unique social, cultural, and environmental factors affecting rural PA behavior. These interviews also contributed to increased capacity for local engagement and reinforced the need for community member leadership in the larger project.
农村环境给定期进行体育活动（PA）带来诸多障碍，生活在这些社区的居民面临各种健康问题的风险更高。
我们采用基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）来指导项目干预措施的制定，并加强社区内的伙伴关系。
利用大学与社区的伙伴关系，包括推广专业人员，从西弗吉尼亚州两个县的20名关键信息提供者那里收集数据。
受访者将“场所”视为其社区中的障碍（缺乏可达性或质量不佳）和资产。“社区文化”被确定为一个重大障碍。从数据中得出的解决方案包括“新的/改善的场所”或“活动/项目”。
这些数据支持了这样一种观点，即存在影响农村体育活动行为的独特社会、文化和环境因素。这些访谈还提高了当地参与的能力，并强化了在更大项目中社区成员发挥领导作用的必要性。
