There is a lack of literature examining the engagement in strength activities of people with disabilities (PWD) using and not using wearable devices. The objectives of the current study were to determine the prevalence of strength activity engagement among wearable device users with disabilities, and to compare strength activity engagement between wearable device users and non-users with and without disabilities. Wearable device users and non-users with and without disabilities from eight states of the CDC's 2017 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance were included in the analysis. Linear regression was used to examine the association between wearable device use and disability status and the interaction term for frequency of strength activity per week, while logistic regression was used to determine the association between the two variables and the interaction term for strength activity engagement and meeting strength activity guidelines. 7055 wearable device users and non-users with and without disabilities were included in the analysis. No interaction effects were found between wearable device use and disability status. In unadjusted logistic regressions, wearable device users were more likely to engage in strength activity (OR = 1.16, 95% CI [1.16, 2.20]) and meet strength activity guidelines (OR = 1.50, 95% CI [1.07, 2.09]), whereas PWDs were less likely to engage in strength activity (OR = 0.57, 95% CI [0.44, 0.75]) and meet strength activity guidelines (OR = 0.72, 95% CI [0.53, 0.98]). The use of wearable devices could lead to engagement in strength activity. However, further research is needed to determine its effectiveness in PWD.
目前缺乏关于使用和未使用可穿戴设备的残疾人进行力量活动情况的文献研究。本研究的目的是确定使用可穿戴设备的残疾用户中力量活动参与率，并比较使用和未使用可穿戴设备的残疾和非残疾人群之间的力量活动参与情况。分析纳入了来自疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）2017年行为危险因素监测中八个州的使用和未使用可穿戴设备的残疾和非残疾人群。使用线性回归来检验可穿戴设备使用与残疾状况之间的关联以及每周力量活动频率的交互项，同时使用逻辑回归来确定这两个变量与力量活动参与和符合力量活动指南的交互项之间的关联。分析纳入了7055名使用和未使用可穿戴设备的残疾和非残疾人群。未发现可穿戴设备使用与残疾状况之间存在交互作用。在未调整的逻辑回归中，使用可穿戴设备的用户更有可能参与力量活动（比值比[OR]=1.16，95%置信区间[CI][1.16,2.20]）并符合力量活动指南（OR=1.50，95%CI[1.07,2.09]），而残疾人参与力量活动的可能性较小（OR=0.57，95%CI[0.44,0.75]）且符合力量活动指南的可能性较小（OR=0.72，95%CI[0.53,0.98]）。使用可穿戴设备可能会促使人们参与力量活动。然而，需要进一步研究以确定其对残疾人的有效性。
