Overview

Randomized trial examines associations between physical condition, support systems, and MVPA in schoolchildren, indicating significant influences.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore relationships between physical condition, peer and parental support, and moderate and vigorous physical activity in schoolchildren.
  • Sample of 655 schoolchildren aged 8 to 16 from the ACTIBESE project.
  • Used questionnaires to assess sociodemographic data, physical activity levels, and support factors.
  • Employed network analysis utilizing the Fruchterman-Reingold algorithm to visualize and analyze relationships.
  • Recess-related activity in children shows strong correlation with moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA).
  • In adolescents, MVPA is linked to activities during recess, lunchtime, and physical education classes.
  • Significant associations found with friends' encouragement and parental support across both age groups.
