Abstract [sv]

Skolbarn i Sverige rör sig allt mindre samtidigt som de sitter stilla i allt högre grad. Folkhälsomyndigheten uppger att endast nio till 23 % av skolbarnen i åldrarna elva till 15 år når upp till rekommendationerna om 60 min fysisk aktivitet per dag. Ett stillasittande beteende har visat sig öka risken för övervikt och fetma hos barn. 21 % av sexåringarna i Sverige anses vara överviktiga och andelen verkar öka med stigande ålder. Ämnet Idrott och Hälsa är en viktig pusselbit för barn som ligger i riskzon för att sitta stilla mycket och /eller ha för lite fysisk aktivitet om dagarna. För att fånga upp denna grupp av barn krävs riktade interventioner vilka i sin tur bygger på kartläggning av olika parametrar och sambandsfaktorer kopplat till hälsa och levnadsvanor. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om deltagande på lektioner i Idrott och Hälsa samvarierar med de hälsorelaterade levnadsvanorna: Dricka sötad dryck, skärmtid, fysisk aktivitet samt frukostvanor. Data är insamlad genom enkätsvar från stiftelsen En Frisk Generations familjeprogram, och respondenterna är barn i åldrarna sju till tio år. Resultatet visar att det verkar finns ett samband mellan att dricka sötad dryck flera dagar i veckan och att ej delta på idrottslektioner (p <0,05). Övriga parametrar visar ej signifikanta samband. Vid tolkning av resultatet bör det beaktas att bortfallet var relativt stort. Vidare forskning behövs för att uttala sig om sambandets riktning och för att öka generaliserbarheten.

Abstract [en]

Swedish children in elementary school are less physical active, and at the same time, the sedentary behavior in these group is rising. The Swedish Government of Public Health statethat only nine to 23% of children aged eleven to 15 reach the recommendation of 60 min physical activity per day. Sedentary behavior has been shown to increase the risk of overweight and obesity in children. 21% of six-year-olds in Sweden are considered overweight, and the proportions seems to increase with increasing weight. Physical educationan important piece of the puzzle to reach recommendations for those children with a high amount of sedentary behavior and too little physical activity during the day. Targeted interventions are required in order to reach out to these children, which in turn are based on mapping various parameters and connection factors linked to health and lifestyle. The aim ofthis study was to investigate weather participation in physical education co-varies with the health-related lifestyle habits: Drinking sweetened beverages, screen time, physical activity and breakfast habits. Data is collected through a questionnaire from the family program of the foundation “A Healthy Generation”. The respondents are children aged seven to ten years. The result shows that there seems to be a connection between drinking sweetened beverages several days a week and not participating in physical education classes (p< 0,05). The other parameters do not show significant relationships. When interpreting the results, it should be taken into account that the drop-out was relatively large. Further research is needed to comment on the directions of the relationship and to increase the generalizability.
