“…Recent evidence has partially demonstrated the advantage of authoritative parenting in promoting physical activity among adolescents also in ethnic minority families, suggesting that the beneficial parental effect in the current context may be cross-culturally valid. In this regard, Huffman, Wilson, Van Horn, and Pate (2018) have reported an association between the general authoritative parenting style, tangible support, and light physical activity (but not moderate-to-vigorous physical activity) in overweight African American adolescents.…”

“…As physical activity plays a key role in respect to several aspects of children’s emotional and physical well-being, in both the short and the long terms, it is vital to establish and expand further its motivating factors. A few empirical indications suggest that this link varies among genders ( Huffman et al, 2018 ), and accordingly this study focuses solely on male adolescents. Like in other developmental and educational outcomes among children of all ages (e.g., Spera, 2005 ; Steinberg, 2001 ; Yaffe, 2018 ), parenting styles also seem to play an influential factor with respect to health-related behaviors, although this link lacks some more supportive evidence for the specific context of physical activity.…”

“…La realización de actividad física a una intensidad que oscila entre moderada y vigorosa se ha vinculado a una mejor condición física cardio-respiratoria y actividad metabólica, un incremento en la masa ósea, así como niveles más reducidos de sobrepeso y obesidad (Huffman, Wilson, Van Horn, & Pate, 2018;Powell, Paluch, & Blair, 2011). Asimismo, la mayor frecuencia de práctica de actividad se ha relacionado con una menor sintomatología depresiva y ansiosa, así como mayor calidad de vida, bienestar subjetivo, capacidad resiliente y fortaleza mental (Moljord, Moksnes, Espnes, Hjemdal, & Eriksen, 2014;Monshouwer, ten Have, van Poppel, Kemper, & Vollenbergh, 2013;Sheperd, Krägeloh, Ryan, & Schofield, 2012).…”

“…Entre las variables de naturaleza social el apoyo parental ha acaparado la atención en un buen número de investigaciones (Brunet et al, 2014;Laird, Fawkner, Kelly, McNamee, & Niven, 2016;Morrissey, Wenthe, Letuchy, Levy, & Janz, 2012;Verloigne et al, 2016). El apoyo social parental se define como las acciones tangibles (provisión de transporte, pago de cuotas, compra de equipamiento) e intangibles (mensajes de ánimo, consejos ofrecidos, felicitaciones) que madres y padres emprenden para favorecer la implicación y realización de actividad física de sus hijos (Huffman et al, 2018;Mutz & Albrecht, 2017).…”
