BACKGROUND
Monitoring of physical activity within the educational institution is of great importance, primarily because of the orientation and content implemented in the daycare. This research aimed to examine the number of steps children took during their stay in daycare with regards to age, gender and the frequency of going out.
METHODS
The research was conducted in four daycares in the urban environment of Novi Sad (Republic of Serbia), where 231 children, aged 5 to 7, were monitored (129 boys and 102 girls). Data on the number of steps were obtained using the pedometers.
RESULTS
The result of the univariate analysis of the variance test confirmed a statistically significant difference in the number of steps in relation to the age of children ( = 0.04). Boys were more active than girls in both age groups ( = 0.001). Children who were going to the daycare yard three to five times a week took drastically more steps than children who went up to twice a week ( = 0.001).
CONCLUSION
The results of the current study show that age, gender, and time spent outdoors are significant determinants of physical activity in preschool age. Therefore, interventions regarding physical activity should be made during early childhood in order to promote health and prevent disease.
背景
监测教育机构内的身体活动非常重要，主要是因为日托所实施的导向和内容。本研究旨在调查儿童在日托所期间的步数与年龄、性别以及外出频率之间的关系。
方法
该研究在塞尔维亚共和国诺维萨德市的四个城市日托所进行，对231名5至7岁的儿童（129名男孩和102名女孩）进行了监测。使用计步器获取步数数据。
结果
方差检验的单变量分析结果证实，儿童步数与年龄之间存在统计学上的显著差异（P = 0.04）。在两个年龄组中，男孩都比女孩更活跃（P = 0.001）。每周去日托所院子三到五次的儿童比每周去两次及以下的儿童步数明显更多（P = 0.001）。
结论
当前研究结果表明，年龄、性别和户外活动时间是学龄前儿童身体活动的重要决定因素。因此，应在幼儿期进行有关身体活动的干预，以促进健康和预防疾病。
