Physical activity of adult Czech population in perceived neighbourhood environments ? National cross-sectional study
Original language description
The main purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between weekly physical activity and neighbourhood environment of adult population in the Czech Republic. Nationwide data collection of adults PA was done in the Czech Republic regions between years 2005-2009 using the long version of IPAQ and NEWS-A questionnaires. The research sample was randomly selected from the addresses database available at the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic and in the study participated 3868 males and 4840 females (aged 40,84). For both males and females lower socio-economic status (SES) and higher walkability significantly indicated the highest total weekly PA [H(7, 8708)=21,41; p=0,003; éta2=0,003]. Lower walkability and higher SES in both men and women was significantly related to PA realized in and around their home H(7, 8708)=288,875 p<0,001; éta2=0,033]. Smaller communities indicate higher walkability and PA than in developed countries, which is another national specificity.
