Does regional disadvantage affect health-related sport and physical activity level? A multi-level analysis of individual behaviour     

Pamela Wicker  Paul Downward  Fernando Lera-López 《European Journal of Sport Science》2017,17(10):1350-1359

This study examines the role of regional government quality in health-related participation in sport and physical activity among adults (18–64 years) in 28 European countries. The importance of the analysis rests in the relative autonomy that regional and local governments have over policy decisions connected with sport and physical activity. While existing studies have focussed on economic and infrastructural investment and expenditure, this research investigates the quality of regional governments across 208 regions within 28 European countries. The individual-level data stem from the 2013 Eurobarometer 80.2 (n?=?18,675) and were combined with regional-level data from Eurostat. An individual's level of participation in sport and physical activity was measured by three variables reflecting whether an individual's activity level is below, meets, or exceeds the recommendations of the World Health Organization. The results of multi-level analyses reveal that regional government quality has a significant and positive association with individual participation in sport and physical activity at a level meeting or exceeding the guidelines. The impact is much larger than that of regional gross domestic product per capita, indicating that regional disadvantage in terms of political quality is more relevant than being disadvantaged in terms of economic wealth.  相似文献

The Anonymity Effect: The Influence of Anonymity on Perceptions of Sources and Information on Health Websites     

《Journal of Applied Communication Research》2007,35(2):197-214

The study reported here examined the influence of anonymous sources on health websites on the perceptions and attitudes of information seekers. It was hypothesized that, despite the warnings and guidelines established by health organizations, anonymous sources would be perceived to be as credible and influential as sources that were identified. The anonymity effect, drawn from the similarity principle in attribution theory, was forwarded as a theoretical mechanism to explain responses to anonymous sources. The results indicated that anonymous sources were generally perceived by participants to be as credible and influential as identified sources, although the anonymity effect explanation was not supported. The implications of these findings for information seekers and health practitioners are considered.  相似文献   

高校体育应加强大学生自我保健教育   总被引：10，自引：1，他引：9  

余小渝  刘光肃 《四川体育科学》1999,(3):64-67

长期以来,我国高校体育教学以运动技能为主,片面追求运动形艺,丢掉了增强体质,增进健康的根本任务。随着高校体育教学改革的不断深化,人们逐渐认识到,体育的终极目标是促进人们工作效率提高,延长工作年限和健康长寿。传授运动技艺,挖掘人类运动能力的极限,应纳入国家“奥运争光计划”。高校体育教育应归属“全民健身计划”的范畴,必须与健康教育相结合。经深入分析自我保健发展的历史,认为２１世纪是保健延寿的时代,高校体育应加强自我保健教育,并在自我保健教育中实施保健运动。  相似文献
