Abstract

This study aims to test the validity and reliability of the Exercise Benefits/Barriers Scale (EBBS) for female university students in Turkey. This is a validity and reliability study of the EBBS for use in a Turkish context. The study sample consisted of 409 students of a School of Nursing (97.1% of the total student body). In the study, a three-part questionnaire was used. The EBBS, developed by Sechrist (Sechrist et al., 1987), was used in the study in order to determine the participants’ benefitbarrier perceptions. The EBBS validity coefficient was found to be 0.87 (re-test =0.85) for the whole scale, 0.95 (re-test=0.94) for the benefit aspect and, 0.80 (retest= 0.79) for the barrier aspect. “Physical performance” and “preventive health” were given the highest scores by the participants within the EBBS’s benefit subscales. The exercise barrier subscale with the lowest score was “exercise milieu”. Determining the benefits of and barriers to exercise, by using a standardized scale, plays an important role in maintaining proper levels of physical activity. The Turkish translation of the EBBS model has shown it to be an effective tool for measuring physical activity among female Turkish university students. Key words: Adolescent health; Exercise; Health behaviours; Physical activity.

土耳其军队护生运动利益/障碍量表的效度和信度

本研究旨在检验土耳其女大学生运动益处/障碍量表(EBBS)的效度和信度。这是一个在土耳其语境中使用EBBS的效度和可靠性研究。研究样本为某护理学院409名学生(占学生总数的97.1%)。在研究中，使用了三部分的问卷调查。研究中使用了由secchriist (secchriist et al.， 1987)开发的EBBS，以确定参与者的利益障碍感知。整体量表的EBBS效度系数为0.87(重测=0.85)，效益量表效度系数为0.95(重测=0.94)，障碍量表效度系数为0.80(重测= 0.79)。在EBBS的利益子量表中，参与者给“身体表现”和“预防健康”打了最高分。得分最低的运动障碍分量表为“运动环境”。通过使用标准化量表来确定运动的益处和障碍，对于保持适当的身体活动水平起着重要作用。EBBS模型的土耳其语翻译表明，它是衡量土耳其女大学生体育活动的有效工具。关键词:青少年健康;锻炼;健康行为;体力活动。
