“…The information obtained, which was objective and non-reactive, has allowed us to appropriately determine whether the children assessed met the recommendation for The results of this study should be interpreted with caution, given the relatively small size of the sample. In recent years, studies on physical activity by accelerometry have been published with many more subjects, up to over a thousand children, such as in the study by Nyberg et al 17 However, other relevant studies have reported a number of cases similar to ours. 14,18,19 Furthermore, we analyzed daily logs of physical activity for only two to four days, having established three days as initial pattern; however, cpm/hour values in two-day records were not significantly different from those collected for a larger number of days.…”

“…Others have shown similar daily profiles of physical activity for boys and girls, but the time frames used in those studies were not specific enough to reflect the transport times to and from school. 8,13,29 This finding of similar activity profiles between genders reinforces the idea that physical activity programs targeting certain times of the day would be appropriate for both girls and boys. Although the girls' physical activity profile was similar to boys', the girls were comparatively less active than boys any time outside of school.…”

“…Durante los últimos años se han publicado trabajos de actividad física por acelerometría con mucho más sujetos, hasta más de mil niños, como en el estudio de Nyberg y cols. 17 Sin embargo, otros trabajos relevantes comunican un número de casos similar al nuestro. 14,18,19 Por otra parte, hemos analizado registros diarios de actividad física de solo dos a cuatro días, habiendo establecido tres días como pauta inicial; sin embargo, los valores de cpm/hora en registros de dos días no fueron significativamente diferentes de los recolectados en mayor número de días.…”

“…No se observó que la actividad física decline entre los 5 y los 10 años, como ha sido comunicado recientemente en niños y niñas suecas, tanto durante días de escuela como en fin de semana. 17 La diferencia entre niños chilenos y niños suecos de las mismas edades (de confirmarse por trabajos futuros) podría explicarse por diferentes hábitos y tradiciones educativas y culturales: en Chile se realizan más juegos libres fuera de casa, menos actividades programadas, tal vez incluso una menor cantidad de horas de clase. Janssens 11 ha delineado cómo, entre la edad preescolar (desde los 2 años) y la adolescencia (hasta 16-18 años), lo esencial de la actividad física pasa progresivamente de una actividad libre, espontánea, basada en juegos y conquista de habilidades motoras, a una actividad dirigida, programada con deportes y estudios.…”
