ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective To identify the influence of functional impairments and limitations activities for persons with disabilities to particípate in family and community activities. Methods This is a cross-sectional study with 4 044 persons with disabilities, selected using probabilistic sampling and a door-to-door active search model in 5 towns in the District of Barranquilla. The data were processed with univariate analysis and bivariate analysis to determine the relationship between the study variables. Results 55.9% of the population were males, 41.6% were between 15 and 44 years of age, and 92.9% belonged to the lower socioeconomic stratum. 82.9% reported mobility limitations and 99% reported barriers to access non-formal learning activities, 98.6% to access public activities, and 97.5% to access productive activities. Individuals with that a lower limitation in exercising the power of reason, particularly thinking, can increase participation in activities with family and friends (OR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.6-0.9), with the community (OR, 0.7; 95% CI, 0.6-0.9), religious or spiritual activities (OR, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.7-0.9). Conclusions There is a directly proportional relationship between structural impairment with the development of dependency and limited family, social, and work participation in the persons with disabilities.


RESUMEN Objetivo Identificar la influencia de las limitaciones funcionales de las personas con discapacidad sobre su participación en actividades familiares y comunitarias. Método Estudio transversal en 4 044 personas con discapacidad, seleccionadas mediante muestreo probabilístico y búsqueda activa casa a casa en 5 municipios del distrito de barranquilla. Se realizó análisis univariado y bivariado para determinar la relación entre las variables estudiadas. Resultados El 55.9% de la población fue de sexo masculino, 41.6% tenían entre 15 y 44 años de edad, y 92.9% pertenecían al estrato socioeconómico bajo.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Objetivo Identificar a través de un método de medición directo de la actividad física, las categorías en las que se ubican un grupo de estudiantes universitarios; así como relacionar estas categorías con variables de tipo sociodemográfico y antropométrico. Métodos Estudio de corte transversal y fase comparativa en 601 estudiantes universitarios a los que se les indagó sobre las variables sociodemográficas: género, edad, estado civil y estrato socioeconómico y autopercepción de salud. Se determinó el Índice de Masa Corporal y los niveles de actividad física mediante el Test de Clasificación de Sedentarismo de Pérez-Rojas-García sobre el comportamiento de la frecuencia cardíaca. Resultados Se observó diferencias significativas (p=0,000) en la frecuencia cardíaca entre activos e inactivos, en los inactivos fue de 143,4 p/m en comparación con 115,1 p/m en los activos. Con respecto a los resultados de la regresión logística, los estudiantes de género femenino presentan mayor riesgo de ser inactivos físicamente con la prueba objetiva [OR 2,6 (1,9-3,6)]; asimismo, se observa que las personas con sobrepeso y obesidad tienen mayor probabilidad de ser inactivos [OR 1,9 (1,4-2,9)]. Conclusión Se evidencia una elevada frecuencia de inactividad física en la población universitaria, asociada significativamente a la obesidad y al género femenino, datos que se convierten en una línea de base fundamental para la elaboración de programas de entrenamiento y actividad física específicos para población universitaria.(AU)


ABSTRACT Objectives To identify the categories in which a group of university students are classified by directly measuring physical activity, and to relate these categories with socio-demographic and anthropometric variables. Materials and Methods Cross-sectional and comparative phase study in 601 university students who were interviewed to inquire about socio-demographic variables such as sex, age, marital status, socioeconomic status and self- perceived health. Body Mass Index (BMI) and physical activity levels were determined by applying the Perez-Rojas-García Sedentarism Classification Test on heart rate behavior. Results Significant heart rate differences (p=0.000) between the active and the inactive group of university students were observed. The inactive group had a heart rate of 143.4 bpm compared to 115.1 bpm in the active group. Regarding the results of the logistic regression, female students had a greater risk of being physically inactive in the objective test [OR 2.6 (1.9 to 3.6)], while overweight and obese people are more likely to be inactive [OR 1.9 (1.4-2.9)]. Conclusion The assessment shows that a high prevalence of physical inactivity in university students is significantly associated with obesity and the female sex. This Information is fundamental for designing specific training programs and physical activities for university students.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Background: Physical inactivity is an important risk factor for chronic diseases in Western societies. Aim: To determine the sociodemographic and motivational factors associated with physical activity in college students. Material and Methods: The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) -short form- and the “motives for physical activities measure-revised” (MPAM-R) questionnaire were applied to 900 university students aged 20 ± 3 years (60% women). The frequency, level and motivations for engaging in physical activity and associated demographic factors were analyzed. Results: Twenty two percent of students were classified as having a high level of physical activity, 54.8% had a low level and 13.9% were considered inactive. According to MET consumption, 68.9% of students are inactive and only 16.8% of students classified as very active. Ninety two percent of active students performed physical activity for health reasons. A significant association between gender and social motivation was observed. Conclusions: A high prevalence of physical inactivity was found in these students. Males showed higher levels of physical activity than females.
