Tóm tắt :

8 p. This fact sheet gives an overview and assessment of the level of physical activity in children and adolescents in the WHO European Region, using the guidelines established by Prochaska et al, which recommend at least 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) daily. The frequency of self-reported physical activity of children and adolescents was obtained from the most recent Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) survey (2005/2006). The 2005/2006 HBSC analysis used daily activity as the cut-off point. For this fact sheet, a special analysis of the data from the survey was conducted to determine the percentage of children having at least 60 minutes of MVPA at least five days a week, to allow for comparison of the results with those obtained from the 2001/2002 HBSC survey. The results are interpreted taking the health, environmental and policy contexts into account, followed by an assessment of the situation in the Region.
