Investigation of Physical Activity Levels by Gender and Residential Areas: A Case Study on Students in Akdeniz University

Physical activity of 15-17 years old adolescents in different educational settings: a Polish-Czech study

“…Nonetheless, those variables were not included in our research and deeper analysis of them is required in the future. In contradiction with previous literature, no differences were found between Czech boys and girls in low intensity PA (32,36).

En relación a los motivos para la práctica de actividad física y su asociación con las variables sociodemográficas, se observa que los hombres activos físicamente se motivan más por el aspecto social en comparación con las mujeres.…”
