Abstract
[Resumen] Identificar los factores relacionados con la actividad física y los mecanismos subyacentes que fomentan el compromiso durante la adolescencia es necesario para fomentar un estilo de vida activo. El principal objetivo del estudio fue analizar la competencia motriz autopercibida y la práctica de actividad física en alumnado de ESO normopeso y con exceso de peso. Fueron evaluados 886 adolescentes de entre 12 y 15 años escolarizados en colegios urbanos y rurales de la Comunidad Autónoma de Aragón. De ellos, 478 (53,95%) eran hombres y 404 (46,05%) mujeres. La edad media fue 13,75 años (DE=1,28). Se empleó el Test AMPET4 para la competencia motriz autopercibida, tres indicadores de la encuesta de la OMS Health Behaviour in Schoolchildren survey en su versión española para analizar la práctica de actividad física y se siguieron las directrices de la OMS en 2007 para establecer los grupos de peso. La existencia de diferencias entre los grupos de peso en las dos variables se realizó a través de la prueba de Kruskal-Wallis. Respecto al estudio de la competencia motriz autopercibida, los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas entre los normopeso y alumnado con exceso de peso. En cuanto a la variable práctica de actividad física, se han observado diferencias significativas en favor de los normopeso con respecto únicamente con los obesos. Por sexos, en las chicas no se encontró ninguna diferencia en la práctica de actividad física. Se subraya la importancia de considerar el peso corporal en el diseño de intervenciones orientadas a promover estilos de vida activos.
[Abstract] Identifying the factors related to physical activity (PA) and the underlying mechanisms that foster engagement during adolescence is necessary to promote an active lifestyle. The main objective of this study was to analyze self-perceived motor competence and physical activity practice in normal-weight and overweight secondary school students. A total of 886 adolescents aged 12 to 15 years enrolled in urban and rural schools in the Autonomous Community of Aragon were evaluated. Of these, 478 (53.95%) were boys and 404 (46.05%) were girls. The mean age was 13.75 years (SD = 1.28). The AMPET4Test was used for self-perceived motor competence, and three indicators from the WHO Health Behaviour in Schoolchildren survey (Spanish version) were used to analyze physical activity practice. The 2007 WHO guidelines were followed to establish the weight groups. Differences between the weight groups in the two variables were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Regarding the study of self-perceived motor competence, the results showed significant differences between normal-weight and overweight students. Concerning the physical activity practice variable, significant differences were observed in favor of normal-weight students compared to only the obese group. By gender, no differences were found in physical activity practice among girls. The importance of considering body weight in the design of interventions aimed at promoting active lifestyles is highlighted.
