摘要

由於社會環境的變遷，伴隨著諸多壓力，國人的生活作息也隨之改變，有愈來愈多人的飲食習慣不正常，運動觀念不正確，對於運動的喜好程度也不足。因此，身體活動能力下降，隨著年齡的增長，代謝能力愈趨緩慢，對健康帶來嚴重的負面影響，尤其是肥胖對身體帶來的問題層出不窮，例如：高血脂、高血壓、糖尿病、高膽固醇以及心臟血管病變等疾病，都與肥胖有關。本文從民眾對於運動的喜好程度切入，針對台中地區民眾進行問卷抽樣調查，利用描述性統計、交叉分析與獨立性檢定方式，藉此了解不同年齡層、性別之運動喜好情況，並且研究不同運動喜好程度的民眾與其本身之身體質量指數之間的關聯性。研究結果發現，不同的性別與年齡層，他們的運動偏好程度各不相同，且其身體質量指數也有所差異。運動喜好程度確實與其身體質量值有密切的關係。亦即，愈喜歡運動的民眾，顯示出其有較好的身體質量值，反之則愈差。
