ABSTRACT
Abstract The aim of this study was to verify if the practice of physical activity in the preschool age (3-5 years) is predictive of this behavior after entering the school age (5-7 years).A longitudinal, school-based study with 700 children enrolled in public and private schools of the city of Recife, Pernambuco, who were evaluated in 2010 and followed in 2012. The study variables were the time spent in outdoor games and plays (a measure referred to by the parents / guardians of children through questionnaire applied as an interview) and the level of physical activity (objective measure obtained by the Actigraph accelerometer). The latter measure was extracted from a subsample (n = 98) of children. To analyze data, binary logistic regression was used. Children who spent 60+ minutes per day in this type of activity were 45% more likely of maintaining this behavior after entering the school age (OR = 1.45, 95% CI 1.02-2.07, p = 0.04). In addition, children who presented global NAF measure of 300+ counts / minute in 2010 were 173% more likely of maintaining this level of physical activity after entering the school age (OR = 2.73, 95% CI, 98-7.59, p = 0.06). It was verified that the practice of physical activity in the preschool age is a predictor of this behavior after entering the school age. It is suggested the development of campaigns to inform parents and teachers about the importance of early adherence to physical activity recommendations.
RESUMO
Resumo Objetivou-se verificar se a prática de atividade física na fase pré-escolar (3-5 anos)é preditora desta conduta após o ingresso na fase escolar (5-7 anos). Estudo longitudinal, de base escolar, realizado com 700 crianças avaliadas em 2010 e acompanhadas em 2012, matriculadas em escolas (públicas e privadas) da cidade do Recife, Pernambuco. As variáveis do estudo foram o tempo despendido em jogos e brincadeiras ao ar livre (medida referida pelos pais/responsáveis das crianças por meio de um questionário aplicado em forma de entrevista) e o nível de atividade física (medida objetiva obtida por acelerômetro Actigraph). Esta última medida foi extraída de uma subamostra (n=98) de crianças. Para análise dos dados recorreu-se a regressão logística binária. As crianças que despendiam, em 2010, 60+ minutos/dia neste tipo de atividade apresentaram chance 45% superior de manter este comportamento após o ingresso na fase escolar (OR= 1,45; IC95% 1,02-2,07; p=0,04).Além disso, as crianças que, em 2010, apresentaram medida global do NAF de 300+ counts/minuto apresentaram chance 173% superior de manter este nível de atividade física após o ingresso na fase escolar (OR= 2,73; IC95% 0,98-7,59; p=0,06). Verificou-se que a prática de atividade física na fase pré-escolar é preditora desta conduta após o ingresso na fase escolar. Sugere-se o desenvolvimento de campanhas a fim de informar pais e professores sobre a importância da aderência precoce às recomendações de prática de atividades físicas.
