Description
  • The need to overcome gender differences in physical activity (PA) is an essential part of health and education policy. Adolescent girls display less PA than boys. The aim of the research was to determine whether 4-week monitoring with pedometers can influence differences between the level of PA amongst adolescent girls and boys. Four-week interventions using pedometers, motivational brochures and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) - long version and the possibility of using an Internet programme were carried out at 14 randomly selected schools. In total, 275 girls (15.8+-0.9 years) and 220 boys (15.8+-0.8 years) participated in the study, which was divided into intervention and control groups. The IPAQ questionnaire was applied in the pre-test as part of the ANEWS questionnaire. The IPAQ was solely used in the post-test. Significant differences in average daily steps were not observed in the intervention group for girls and boys (F=3.79; p{.05; omega2=.011), nor were differences in girls' average number of steps in school versus weekend days observed (p=.82). The lowest amount of PA in boys was observed on Sunday (n=10,390+-3,728 steps?day-1), whilst overall, boys had a larger amount of steps on school days than on weekend days (p{.01). In contrast, girls walked more during the week following the intervention. The four-week intervention eliminated the difference in the overall PA of adolescent girls and boys along with the difference between school and weekend days amongst girls. The use of pedometers, motivational recording brochures and an Internet programme for maintaining PA for a longer period support the continuance of a movement active and healthy lifestyle amongst girls significantly more than their use amongst boys.
