Purpose: This study was to the investigate recognition of physical activity between physical therapy students (PTS) and non-physical therapy students (NPTS) by measuring the level of physical activity using International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ). Methods: A cross-sectional survey was completed by 191 university students. The IPAQ with an additional question (Is physical activity necessary for your future job?) was used to evaluate the recognition and the amount of physical activity. The collected data were calculated as MET-minutes scores and were classified as walking, moderate, and vigorous level of physical activity. The students were analyzed by dividing them into those who had a part-time employment (16 PTS and 12 NPTS) and those who did not have a part-time employment (80 PTS and 83 NPTS). Results: In students with a part-time employment, no significances were observed between the PTS and NPTS, in terms of MET, frequency and time of physical activity, and sitting time (p>0.05). In students without a part-time employment, the NPTS was significantly higher than the PTS for the MET and frequency of physical activity in a vigorous level (p< 0.05), and there were no significant differences in other levels of physical activity (p >0.05). In the additional question, the PTS showed a slightly higher than the NPTS (p<0.05). Conclusion: The physical therapy students did not remarkable barrier to recognition of physical activity, but there was a difference in their recognition of the vigorous level of physical activity. Therefore, the understanding of physical activity for PTS would play an important role in the recognition of how physical activity can be promoted.

[목적] 본 연구의 목적은 고등학교 남녀 학생의 신체활동 실태를 파악하고, 체육수업 유무와 성별에 따른 강도별 신체활동(좌식활동, 저강도 활동, MVPA) 특성을 파악하는 것이다. [방법] 자료 수집은 서울시 소재 4개 고등학교에 재학 중인 150명(남: 65명, 여: 85명)을 대상으로 이루어졌고, 신체활동은 3차원 가속도계를 활용해 일주일동안 측정되었다. 수집된 신체활동 자료를 강도별(좌식, 저강도, MVPA)로 분류 및 추출한 뒤, SPSS 25.0 통계 프로그램을 활용해 기술통계분석, 체육수업 유무와 성별에 따른 이원분산분석을 실시하였다(<.05). [결과] 기술통계분석 결과, 전체 학생의 신체활동 기준 달성율(일일 MVPA 60분 이상)은 31%(남: 40.7%, 여: 23.4%)로 나타났다. 이원분산분석 결과, 좌식활동, 저강도 활동, MVPA 모두에서 체육수업 유무와 성별에 따른 주효과와 상호작용 효과가 통계적으로 유의하게 나타났다. 상호작용 효과 분석 결과에 따르면, 체육수업 유무에 따른 신체활동 격차는 남학생에서 크게 나타났다. 남학생의 경우, 체육수업이 있는 날 저강도 활동과 MVPA가 크게 증가하였고, 좌식활동은 크게 감소하였던 반면, 여학생의 좌식활동과 신체활동 변화는 미비하게 나타났다. [결론] 국내 고등학생의 신체활동 수준은 상대적으로 저조하였으며, 체육수업의 일상생활 신체활동 효과는 남학생에게 한정되었다. 이에 따라, 고등학교 여학생의 체육수업을 통한 신체활동 효과를 높일 수 있는 정책적 방안이 고려되어야 한다. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to analyze the level and characteristics of physical activity (sedentary, light, and MVPA) of high school students according to physical education (PE) class (DWPE: days with PE class, DNPE: days with no PE class) and sex. METHODS Data were collected on 147 students (65 male and 82 female) from four high schools in Seoul city, and physical activity was measured using a three-dimensional accelerometer. The collected physical activity data were input into SPSS 25.0, and the descriptive analysis and two-way ANOVA according to PE class and sex were performed. RESULTS The descriptive statistical analysis showed that 31% (40.7% male and 23.4% female) of participants met the recommended physical activity durations (MVPA of 60 min/day). In the two-way ANOVA, sedentary activity, light activity, and MVPA showed statistically significant main and interaction effects according to PE class and sex. According to the results of the interaction effect analysis, the gap in physical activity between DWPE and DNPE was large in male students. For male students, light activity and MVPA significantly increased on the day of the PE class, and sedentary activity significantly decreased. However, for female students, DWPE and DNPE did not differ significantly in all levels of physical activity. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the level of physical activity of Korean high school students was relatively low, and the effect of daily-life physical activity in the PE class was limited to male students. Accordingly, an alternative should be introduced to increase the physical activity of female high-school students through PE classes.

정혜윤(HaeYoonJung),이민희(MinHeeLee),백성수(SeungSooBaek) 한국체육학회 2015 한국체육학회지 Vol.54 No.3

청소년기의 규칙적인 신체활동은 신체적 또는 정신적 건강 발달에 도움을 주는 것으로 잘 알려져 있다. 본 연구 대상자들은 0교시 체육을 추가적으로 실시한 운동군40명과 정상적으로 정규체육수업을 실시한 통제군38명 학생들을 모집하여 각 군에서 임의로 10명을 선정하여 일주일동안 사전·사후 신체활동을 측정하였다. 인지기능을 검증하기 위하여 사전·사후의 스트룹검사를 진행하였다. 신체활동량은 총칼로리소비량과 총보수량 및 운동강도를 측정하였고, 인지기능은 스트룹검사 1, 2로 두 가지 타입에서 정답률과 오답률을 측정하였다. 그 결과 신체활동은 총칼로리소비량과 총보수량의 사전·사후 시기적 변화에서 운동군이 통제군 보다 0교시 체육을 참여함으로써 신체활동량에 긍정적 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 운동강도는 고강도, 중강도, 저강도의 강도에 따른 측정한 결과 고강도와 중강도에서 운동군의 사전·사후 시기적 긍정적 효과가 나타났지만, 저강도에서는 운동군과 통제군의 각 집단간 증가로 유의한 효과가 없었다. 인지기능에서 스트룹검사1, 2에서 정답률과 오답률 결과 사전·사후 시기적 변화에서 운동군이 통제군 보다 0교시 체육을 참여함으로써 인지기능에 긍정적 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 0교시 체육은 중학생의 신체활동량의 증가를 유발하고, 인지기능에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 그러므로 0교시 수업시작 전 아침운동은 중학생의 체력향상과 수업태도 및 학업향상에도 영향을 줄 것으로 기대한다. Regular exercise or physical education in the adolescence has been expected to effect on physical and mental health development. The purpose of this study focused on effects of 10-week early morning exercise on physical activity and cognitive function in the middle school students. The subjects of this research were collected from 40 students who had additionally taken early morning physical exercise, and 38 students of control group who had taken regular physical exercise. After that, ten students were selected from each groups to assess their before and after physical activity for seven days. Physical activity was assessed by total gross caloric value, total number of gaits, and exercise intensity. Cognitive function was assessed by two types of stroop tests. The findings of this research showed that the exercise group is increased in the total calorie consumption and physical activity quantity compared to the control group. In regards to exercise intensity, there were positive effects on high and moderate intensity of the daily physical activity, however, there is no effect in the low intensity of the daily physical activity. Also, students were classified as high, medium, and low intensity of daily physical activity. It was a significant effect of increasing cognitive function in the students of high and medium intensity of daily physical activity. However, In low-intensity physical activity of students was no significant effect. In the cognitive function, both stroop tests suggested students who had additional morning physical exercise had more positive effects than a control groups of students who had regular exercise. As a result, morning physical exercise induces increase in physical activity of middle school students, and positively effects on their cognitive function. Therefore, before beginning classes in middle school physical activity can lead to lifestyle changes for increased physical activity in everyday life, even academic improvement through increased concentration it can be expected to have a positive impact.

A study on the physical activity issues in asthmatic children and it's significance to school education

김연수 서울대학교 교육종합연구원 2009 The SNU Journal of Education Research Vol.18 No.-

Asthma and physical activity in children are major health issues. The incidence and prevalence of asthma have increased considerably over the last few decades, particularly for children. And the level of physical inactivity in children has also increased in the worldwide. Therefore, the burden on health services from asthma and physical activity are extensive and increasing now. Physical activity is important. It has <<an사제>> advantages for children in terms of skeletal development, improve cardiorespiratory fitness, lowered body fat and elevated self-esteem. Of course, physical activity is also very important for children with asthma. But there seem to be a common perception that asthmatic children have reduced an exercise capacity and have been discouraged from physical activity. We are afraid that many children and young people with asthma believe the limitations on their activity are an inevitable part of having asthma. This paper presents a review of the literature in which habitual physical activity and fitness levels including obesity and investigate of 2007 KYRBS(Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey) in order to provide an overview of evidence and argument in this issue, and inform decisions about the future direction of empirical studies and therefore help to making systems/or programs for them.

계절별 날씨 변화가 신체활동 참여 수준에 미치는 영향

이용수 한국웰니스학회 2019 한국웰니스학회지 Vol.14 No.1

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the weather change and the type and level of physical activity participation of the residents registered in a local public health center in Seoul and to provide basic data on the strategy development of health promotion project and physical activity promotion program. The subjects of this study were 1,956 members aged between 30 and 65 who were enrolled in the Center for Metabolic Syndrome Management at the Public Health Center of the Seoul Metropolitan Government. The results of this study were as follows: As a result of comparing monthly physical activity level, the highest month of physical activity was in October, November and April. The highest monthly physical activity was in September, January and October. As a result of comparing the level of physical activities by season, 'high intensity physical activity per week' was significantly higher in autumn than in summer and winter(p<.001). The mean intensity of physical activity per week was significantly higher in autumn than in spring) and winter (p<.01). There was no significant difference in walking activity per week between the seasons. Among the three types of physical activity, walking is the highest physical activity and seasonal variation is the least, so it is appropriate to use it as a strategy to minimize changes in physical activity due to seasonal changes. In the future, it will be necessary to focus on the development of walking program in order to activate physical activity. 본 연구의 목적은 날씨의 변화가 지역 거주민의 신체활동 참여 형태와 수준에 미치는 관련성을 조사하여 건강증진 사업 기획 및 신체활동증진 프로그램의 중재전략 개발에 기초자료를 제공하는 것이다. 본 연구의 연구대상자는 서울특별시 산하 일개 지방정부의 보건소 대사증후군관리센터에 등록된 나이 30세에서 65세 사이의 회원 1,956명이다. 연구결과 월별 신체활동 수준을 비교한 결과 ‘신체활동높음’ 이 가장 많은 달은 10월, 11월, 4월 순으로 나타났으며, ‘신체활동보통’ 이 가장 높은 달은 9월, 1월, 10월 순으로 나타났다. 계절별 신체활동 수준을 비교한 결과 ‘주당고강도신체활동량’은 가을이 여름과 겨울보다 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났으며(p<.001), ‘주당중강도신체활동량’은 가을이 봄과 겨울보다 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났다(p<.01). ‘주당걷기신체활동량’은 계절간에 유의한 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 걷기는 가장 신체활동량이 높고, 계절별 편차가 가장 적으므로 계절변화에 따른 신체활동량 변화를 최소화하기 위한 전략으로 활용하는 것이 적절할 것으로 사료된다. 추후 신체활동 활성화를 위해서는 계절별 걷기 운동 프로그램 전략 개발에 대한 연구가 필요 할 것으로 판단된다.

Junghoon Kim(Junghoon Kim) 사피엔시아 2017 Exercise Medicine Vol.1 No.-

OBJECTIVES: At present, almost nothing is known about longitudinal trends in the proportion of Korean adults meeting recommended guidelines for physical activity or the inter-related factors. The purpose of this study was to investigate the longitudinal trends in how Korean adults met new guidelines for physical activity between 2008 and 2013 and to evaluate a range of factors that could have influenced these trends. METHODS: Analysis involved a dataset of 36,009 adults aged ≥20 years who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2008-2013. The volume of physical activity and muscular activity were assessed using a self-reported questionnaire, and each domain of activity was characterized as being either low or high, based upon physical activity guidelines for Korean adults. RESULTS: Based on new physical activity guidelines, 22.0%, 26.6%, and 36.8% of Korean adults met the guideline requirements for moderate, vigorous, and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, respectively; 21.8% adults met the requirements for muscular activity. The odds ratio for meeting the requirements of the physical activity guidelines was significantly lower in the elderly population, in females, and in participants with low income. Moreover, the longitudinal trend for meeting the guidelines for physical activity showed a significant reduction from 2008 to 2012. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, the self-reporting questionnaire used in the present study showed that ~35% of Korean adults met the guidelines for physical activity. Furthermore, the longitudinal trend for meeting physical activity guidelines showed a significant reduction between 2008 and 2012. Finally, our findings showed that physical activity estimates for Korean adults vary substantially depending on socio-demographic characteristics.

박현주 韓國學校保健學會 2010 韓國學校保健學會誌 Vol.23 No.1

Purpose: Adolescent obesity is a growing problem. This study examined the relationships between different types of physical activity and obesity in male and female middle and high school students. Methods: This study used the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data of 2007. The study included 282 male and female middle and high school students who completed health survey questionnaires regarding physical activity. Physical activity was measured with vigorous and moderate activity and walking. BMI was used as an obesity indicator. Analyses were done using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and chi-square test. In addition, multiple logistic regression were conducted to investigate the relationship between physical activity and obesity when adjusting for covariates. SAS/WIN 9.1 was used. Results: Boys spent more days in vigorous and moderate physical activity than girls (p for vigorous activity: <.001, for moderate activity: <.001). There was no significant difference in walking activity between boys and girls and between middle and high school students. Only days spent in vigorous activity was significantly higher in middle school student compared with high school students (p=.013). According to the relationship between physical activity and obesity, moderate physical activity was significantly related to BMI for high school boys (p=.041). However, when adjusting for age, sex, school, parental income, daily caloric intake, physical activity was not significantly related to obesity. Conclusions: The results showed that male and female middle and high school students spent not enough days in doing low moderate and vigorous physical activity. Thus, this strengthens the need to increase physical activity level in these populations. In spite of non-significant relationship between physical activity and obesity from multivariate analysis, increasing moderate physical activity for high school boy could be effective to prevent and manage obesity, since significant difference between moderate activity and obesity in this population.

한국 청소년의 신체활동 실천율 실태조사

백승희(Baek, Seung-Hui) 한국체육과학회 2015 한국체육과학회지 Vol.24 No.5

The This study has been carried out to figure out practice rate of aerobic exercise physical activity, vigorous physical activity and walking activity of adolescents of Korea. The results are as follows. 1. Physical activity by gender and school type indicate that male adolescents exhibit higher level of physical activities including aerobic exercise physical activity, vigorous physical activity and walking activity than female ones 2. practice rate of physical activity by school type indicate that practice rates of aerobic exercise physical activity and walking activity have been very high in coeducational school while boy school has exhibited higher level of vigorous physical activity than girl school. 3. According to the results from analysis on physical activity by school class, middle school has exhibited higher level of aerobic exercise physical activity, vigorous physical activity and walking activity than high school. 4. physical activity by year indicate that practice rate of aerobic exercise physical activity and vigorous physical activity decreases by increase in the school year. Further practice rate of walking activity has been the highest and lowest in third year of middle school and third year of high school respectively. 5. phyaical activity by the size of city indicate that practice rate of aerobic exercise physical activity and walking activity has been the highest in case of large city while mid/small sized city has shown the lowest level of aerobic exercise physical activity and vigorous physical activity. 6. practice rate of physical activity of sixteen cities indicate that Seoul has shown the highest practice rate of aerobic exercise physical activity and walking activity while Gangwon has shown the highest level of vigorous physical activity. Further, Chungbuk and Gyeongbuk have shown the highest practice rates of aerobic exercise physical activity and vigorous physical activity respectively. This result indicates very low practice rates of aerobic exercise physical activity, vigorous physical activity and walking activity of Korean adolescents. Therefore, practice rate of physical activity of Korean adolescents need to be improved through comprehensive approach at home, school and local society. In addition, there needs to be an environment for physical activity at school and social level to reduce practice level of physical activities of the sixteen cities in regard to gender, school type, school class, school year, city size.

한국인의 신체활동 현황과 운동처방

양윤준 대한의사협회 2022 대한의사협회지 Vol.65 No.12

Background: Physical activity is vital for health promotion and maintenance. The proportion meeting the guidelines for basic physical activity recommended by the World Health Organization is not high. Insufficient physical activity combined with aging can lead to development of various chronic diseases, increasing risks of complications. To prevent cardiovascular disease, cancer, and musculoskeletal diseases, and to promote mental health, it is necessary to increase physical activity. Current Concepts: The global insufficient aerobic physical activity rate was 27.5% in 2016. In Korea, the rate of aerobic insufficient physical activity in adults over the age of 19 was 54.4% in 2020 (51.7% for men and 57% for women). The rate in adults aged 19 to 64 was 53.9% (male 51.8% and female 56.1%), can reach 66.8% (male 59.2% and female 73%) in those 65 years and older, and can be as high as 94.1% (male 91.3% and female 97.1%) in adolescents. Discussion and Conclusion: To promote physical activity, national and local governments, civic organizations, public health centers, workplaces, schools, and medical institutions must all work together. Medical personnel are in a good position to encourage physical activity in patients following occurrence of a disease. Physical activity of patients should be constantly encouraged by identifying the levels of physical activity for all patients, encouraging physical activity, providing motivation through information, and re-monitoring the progress of physical activity.

Park, So-Young,Lee, Joong-Yub,Kang, Dong-Yoon,Rhee, Chul-Woo,Park, Byung-Joo The Korean Society for Preventive Medicine 2012 Journal of Preventive Medicine and Public Health Vol.45 No.1

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate whether a medium to high degree of total physical activity and indoor physical activity were associated with reduced all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among elderly Korean women. Methods: A prospective cohort study was done to evaluate the association between physical activity and mortality. The cohort was made up of elderly (${\geq}65$ years of age) subjects. Baseline information was collected with a self-administered questionnaire and linked to death certificates retrieved from a database. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) levels. Results: Women who did not suffer from stroke, cancer, or ischemic heart disease were followed for a median of 8 years (n=5079). A total of 1798 all-cause deaths were recorded, of which 607 (33.8%) were due to cardiovascular disease. The group with the highest level of total physical activity and indoor physical activity was significantly associated to a reduced all-cause mortality (HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.71 and HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.67, respectively) compared to the group with the lowest level of total physical activity and indoor physical activity. Additionally, the group with the highest level of total physical activity and indoor physical activity was significantly associated to a lower cardiovascular disease mortality (HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.40 to 0.71 and HR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.39 to 0.67, respectively) compared to the group with the lowest level of total physical activity and indoor physical activity. Conclusions: Our study showed that regular indoor physical activity among elderly Korean women has healthy benefits.
