Determinants of Exercise Behavior in Female Adolescents
青少女運動行為影響因素之研究
摘要
本研究目的在了解目前青少女運動行為現況，並分析影響青少女運動行為之因素。本研究以台南縣市各高中職日間部的女生班級學生為研究母群體，運用結構式問卷，採機率比率抽樣法，收集有效樣本數為536人。資料回收後以單因子變異數分析、卡方檢定、迴歸等統計方法，進行資料分析。研究結果顯示536位青少女中，近一個月運動情形（不包含體育課），高達71.6%（384人）屬於靜態生活方式。青少女之身體質量指數(BMI)與運動行為中之運動強度、運動時間、是否運動有顯著差異，而自覺健康狀況與運動行為中之運動頻率、是否運動有顯著差異。青少女運動行為的預測因子為自覺運動自我效能、自覺運動障礙及運動社會支持。以上結果可應用於健康生活領域，有助於了解青少女運動行為現況及其相關因素，可作為健康生活實務及衛生教育工作之參考。

The purpose of this study was to understand the current status of exercise behavior in female adolescents and analyze the factors which determined the exercise behavior in female adolescents. The study population consisted of daytime students in girls’ classes from various high schools/vocational schools in Tainan City and Tainan County. Structured questionnaires were given based on Probability Proportionate to Size Sampling Method (PPS) and a sum of 536 valid samples was collected. Data analyses were processed with one-way ANOVA, Chi-square test and regression analysis. The results indicated that among the 536 female adolescents, as high as 71.6% (n=384) fall into the category of sedentary lifestyle when inquired about exercise for the past month (excluding physical education class). Body mass index had led to significant difference in intensity and duration of exercise and whether or not participating in exercise; whereas perceived health status had led to significant difference in frequency of exercise and whether or not participating in exercise. The predictors for exercise behavior in female adolescents were perceived self-efficacy for exercise, perceived barriers to exercise and social support for exercise. The results herein can be applied in the field of healthy life to comprehend the current exercise behavior in female adolescents and its determinants; thus, serving as reference for healthy life practice and health education.
