Abstract.RELATIONSHIPS AMONG PARENTAL SUPPORT, SELF-RESPECT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN ADOLESCENTSThis study examined the relationships between parental support for physical activity, the frequency of weekly practice, and expectations of self-efficacy to overcome obstacles that impede such participation. We also analyzed whether the frequency of practice and perceived self-efficacy were different according to the participant’s gender. A total of 430 students, from three secondary education centers in the province of Jaen and aged between 12 and 17 years (M = 13.96; SD = 1.39), took part in this study. The results showed that the boys and girls who attributed to their parents a high level of instrumental support, modeling, and behavioral limitation allocated a greater number of days a week to the performance of physical-sport activity during a minimum interval of 60 minutes. In addition, these were more self-efficacious to engage in such practice compared to those who perceived lower support rates in their parents. Finally, both the frequency of practice of activity and the self-efficacy attributed to being involved in activities of a physical-sport nature was greater in the case of male participants.Key words: parental support, adolescents, self-efficacy and physical activityResumen.Este estudio examinó las relaciones existentes entre el apoyo parental hacia la actividad física, la frecuencia de práctica semanal y las expectativas de autoeficacia para superar los obstáculos que dificultan dicha participación. Asimismo, se analizó si la frecuencia de práctica y autoeficacia percibida difería en función del sexo del participante. Un total de 430 estudiantes procedentes de tres centros de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria de la provincia de Jaén, con edades comprendidas entre los 12 y 17 años de edad (M = 13.96; SD = 1.39) tomaron parte en este estudio. Los resultados mostraron que los chicos y chicas que atribuían a sus progenitores un elevado nivel de apoyo instrumental, modelado y limitación de la conducta destinaban un mayor número de días a la semana a la realización de actividad físico-deportiva durante un intervalo mínimo de 60 minutos y se mostraban más autoeficaces para implicarse en dicha práctica en comparación con aquellos otros que percibían en sus progenitores menores índices de apoyo. Asimismo, tanto la frecuencia de práctica de actividad como la autoeficacia atribuida para implicarse en actividades de naturaleza físico-deportiva fue mayor en el caso de los participantes varones.Palabras clave: apoyo parental, adolescentes, autoeficacia y actividad física

Adults with disabilities are 57% less physically active than individuals without disabilities and two times as likely to be obese. With obesity, adults with disabilities also face increased risk of comorbid disabilities stemming from obesity. The purpose of this theoretical case study was to identify key behavioral change theories which may be utilized to increase physical activity levels in adults with intellectual disabilities. The Self-Efficacy Theory and Self-Determination Theory both present constructs for understanding behavior change, and many of these constructs are interrelated which strongly suggests many behavioral change theories identify internal barriers for change. With theoretical case studies, these theories are examined within the context of adapted physical activity to depict how the Self-Efficacy Theory and Self-Determination Theory could be utilized to increase physical activity in individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Self-efficacy has proven to be an important determinant of adolescent physical activity behavior. However, there are still knowledge gaps related to how intervention techniques can improve the self-efficacy of physical activity behavior in adolescents. This systematic review aims to describe the techniques of intervening adolescent physical activity aimed at increasing self-efficacy. Data collection uses several electronic databases namely ScienceDirect, Elsevier, Proquest, Jstor, Wiley Online Library by using the help of remote Lib UI and Google Scholar. Keywords used in literature search are related to self-efficacy, physical activity, adolescent, innovation and promotion of physical activity. The results show that the most widely used technique is to build mastery experiences by asking participants to engage in physical activity during the intervention and outside the intervention session, providing physiological feedback, setting goals, monitoring themselves and seeing the intervention giver and others practicing the intervention. The results of the study are expected to be a reference for researchers and developers of interventions in increasing the self-efficacy of adolescent physical activity behavior so that it has positive implications for the development of youthful physical activity promotion efforts. Further research is expected to be able to analyze the most effective intervention techniques to improve the selfefficacy of adolescent physical activity behavior Keywords: physical activity; teenager; intervention techniques; self efficacy ABSTRAK Efikasi diri telah terbukti menjadi penentu penting perilaku aktivitas fisik remaja.

Malnutrition–sarcopenia syndrome (MSS) might put older adults at higher risk for disability, frailty, and mortality. This study examined the prevalence and association of the self-management-process factors (i.e., self-efficacy and aging expectations) and behaviors (protein and caloric intake and sedentary and physical-activity behaviors) to MSS among older adults living in continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). Using a cross-sectional correlational design, data of 96 CCRC residents (82.4 ± 7.4 years) were analyzed. Muscle mass, strength, function, nutritional status, sedentary time, physical activity levels, protein and caloric intake, self-efficacy for physical activity, aging expectations, and physical and mental health-related quality of life were measured. Results show that 36 (37.5%) had sarcopenia, 21 (21.9%) had malnutrition risk, 13 (13.4%) had malnutrition, and 12 (12.5%) had MSS. We also found that high time spent in sedentary behaviors (OR = 1.041; 95% CI: 1.011–1.071) was associated with higher odds of having MSS and high expectations regarding aging (OR = 0.896; 95% CI: 0.806–0.997) was associated with less likelihood of having MSS. Findings suggest that CCRC residents should be screened for MSS. Self-management interventions that consider the self-management-process factors are needed to prevent MSS and mitigate its negative outcomes among CRCC residents.

Background:Self-efficacy is a consistent correlate of physical activity, but most self-efficacy measures have not been validated in diverse populations. This study examined the construct, criterion-related, and convergent validity and internal consistency of the Self-Efficacy for Exercise Questionnaire.Methods:African American and Caucasian adults (N = 1919) from two adjacent counties in South Carolina were identified through a list-assisted random digit-dialed telephone survey. Psychometric properties of the measure were assessed by gender, race, age, education, and body weight subgroups.Results:Across all subgroups, a single-factor solution explained 93 to 98% of the common variance in an exploratory factor analysis, and all 14 items had factor loadings exceeding 0.40. Higher exercise self-efficacy was significantly associated with greater physical activity, younger age, male gender, higher education, and lower body weight, as predicted. Internal consistency was high for all subgroups (α = 0.90 to 0.94).Conclusion:The Self-Efficacy for Exercise Questionnaire appears to be a valid and reliable measure for use with diverse populations.

Objetivo: El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar la autoeficacia para la práctica de actividad física en escolares colombianos y establecer su relación con los niveles de actividad física identificados de acuerdo al sexo. Método: Estudio de corte transversal analítico en 2102 niñas y 2054 niños entre los 10 a 14 años estudiantes de 27 escuelas públicas. Se aplicó la Escala de Autoeficacia hacia la Actividad Física y el Cuestionario de Actividad Física para Escolares (PAQ-C) para medir el comportamiento activo. Se determinó la frecuencia de las variables categóricas y se realizó una Regresión Logística Multivariante, en la cual la variable dependiente fue la actividad física general realizada durante la última semana, considerando en el modelo como variables independientes los componentes de la autoeficacia hacia la actividad física. Se determinaron los Odds Ratio (OR) en población general y su intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95 % asumiendo un valor de significancia estadística menor de 0,05. Resultados: 64,3% de los escolares se categorizaron como inactivos físicamente, donde 66,9% de niñas resultaron inactivas y 38,4% de niños activos. Es mayor la probabilidad de ser inactivos físicamente en los escolares que consideran no poder correr al menos 8 minutos seguidos [OR 1,7 (IC95% 1,4-1,9)], realizar actividad física después de la escuela [OR 1,5 (IC95% 1,2-1,7)] o cuando hace mucho frio o calor [OR 1,4 (IC95% 1,2-1,6)]. Conclusiones: Los escolares con baja autoeficacia para la práctica de actividad física tienen mayor probabilidad de ser inactivos físicamente. Abstract. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the self-efficacy for the practice of physical activity in Colombian schoolchildren, and to establish their relationship with the levels of physical activity identified according to gender. Method: Analytical cross-sectional study with 2102 girls and 2054 boys between 10 to 14 years old, students from 27 public schools. The Self-Efficacy Scale was applied to Physical Activity and the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Schoolchildren (PAQ-C) to measure active behavior. Frequency of the categorical variables was determined, and a Multivariate Logistic Regression was carried out, in which the dependent variable was general physical activity carried out during the last week, whilst independent variables were the components of self-efficacy towards physical activity. The Odds Ratio (OR) in the general population and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were determined assuming a value of statistical significance of less than 0.05. Results: 64.3% of the students were categorized as physically inactive, where 66.9% of the girls were inactive and 38.4% of the boys were active. The probability of being physically inactive is greater in schoolchildren who consider that they cannot run at least 8 minutes in a row [OR 1.7 (95% CI 1.4-1.9)], perform physical activity after school [OR 1, 5 (IC95% 1.2-1.7)] or when it is very cold or hot [OR 1.4 (IC95% 1.2-1.6)]. Conclusions: Students with low self-efficacy for physical activity are more likely to be physically inactive.
