Abstract

Background: Young Arab American women are at risk for cardiovascular disease, but there is limited data on their physical activity (PA) engagement.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between PA and its correlates in young Arab American women. The objectives of this study were to: (1) describe self-reported lifestyle PA behaviors of young Arab American women and (2) examine the relationship between their self-reported lifestyle PA, device-measured lifestyle PA (combined moderate/vigorous and steps), and potentially associated factors (demographics, physical measures, individual factors, and behavior cognition factors).

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with women 18 to 35 years of age and Arab American (n = 50) in the Midwest Region of the United States. Participants wore ActiGraph GT3X-BT monitors for 7 days; self-report measures included the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, demographics, acculturation, discrimination, religiosity, self-efficacy, and social support.

Results: The mean age of participants was 25.5 years (SD: 5.5; range: 18-35). Per ActiGraph, the average daily steps were 5946 (SD: 2783); only 24% met the moderate-intensity PA guidelines. Self-efficacy was significantly associated with increased moderate-to-vigorous PA (B = 0.37; P = .012).

Conclusion: The average daily steps for the young Arab American women in this study were of low active classification. More than 75% of the women failed to meet the recommended weekly moderate/vigorous PA guidelines. Our study supports the importance of targeting and tailoring PA interventions on young Arab American women who have low self-efficacy for overcoming barriers to lifestyle PA.

阿拉伯裔美国年轻女性生活方式中体育活动的相关因素。
背景:年轻的阿拉伯裔美国妇女有罹患心血管疾病的风险,但有关她们参加体育活动(PA)的数据却很有限:本研究旨在探讨美国阿拉伯裔年轻女性的体育锻炼及其相关因素之间的关系。本研究的目标是(1) 描述年轻阿拉伯裔美国女性自我报告的生活方式 PA 行为;(2) 研究她们自我报告的生活方式 PA、设备测量的生活方式 PA(中度/强度和步数的组合)与潜在相关因素(人口统计学、体能测量、个人因素和行为认知因素)之间的关系:这项横断面研究的对象是美国中西部地区 18 至 35 岁的阿拉伯裔美国妇女(n = 50)。参与者佩戴 ActiGraph GT3X-BT 监测器 7 天;自我报告测量包括国际体育锻炼问卷、人口统计学、文化程度、歧视、宗教信仰、自我效能感和社会支持:参与者的平均年龄为 25.5 岁(标准差:5.5;范围:18-35)。根据 ActiGraph,参与者的日均步数为 5946 步(标准差:2783 步);只有 24% 的参与者达到了中等强度运动量指南的要求。自我效能与中强度运动量的增加有明显关联(B = 0.37; P = .012):结论:在这项研究中,年轻的阿拉伯裔美国妇女平均每天的运动步数属于低强度运动。超过 75% 的女性未能达到每周中度/剧烈运动的建议标准。我们的研究表明,针对自我效能较低的年轻阿拉伯裔美国妇女进行有针对性的体育锻炼干预非常重要,有助于她们克服生活方式体育锻炼方面的障碍。
