Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to examine the reliability and validity of the Japanese version of the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C) in Japanese children aged 9 to 12 years.

Methods: A total of 210 children aged between 9 and 12 years participated. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were evaluated using Cronbach alpha coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), respectively. Validity was evaluated using athletic competence (AC), self-efficacy (SE), body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (%BF), cardiovascular fitness (CVF), and World Health Organization Health Behavior in School-aged Children (WHO HBSC) physical activity questionnaire.

Results: Internal consistency was acceptable (alpha = 0.80) and test-retest reliability showed excellent agreement (ICC = 0.83). The PAQ-C score was significantly correlated with AC (r = 0.41), SE (r = 0.65), %BF (r = 0.19), and CVF (r = -0.32). The PAQ-C score of the active group classified by the WHO HBSC physical activity questionnaire (mean score ± standard deviation [SD] = 3.03 ± 0.57) was significantly higher than that of the inactive group (mean score ± SD = 2.27 ± 0.63, P < .01).

Conclusions: The PAQ-C had acceptable reliability and validity. The PAQ-C is a useful instrument to evaluate physical activity for Japanese children aged 9 to 12 years.

日文版大龄儿童体育活动问卷的信度与效度。

目的:本研究旨在检验日本版《大龄儿童体育活动问卷》(PAQ-C)在日本9 ~ 12岁儿童中的信度和效度。方法:共210名9 ~ 12岁儿童参与。内部一致性和重测信度分别采用Cronbach α系数和类内相关系数(ICC)进行评价。采用运动能力(AC)、自我效能(SE)、体重指数(BMI)、体脂率(%BF)、心血管健康(CVF)和世界卫生组织学龄儿童健康行为(WHO HBSC)体育活动问卷进行效度评价。结果:内部一致性可接受(alpha = 0.80)，重测信度显示极好的一致性(ICC = 0.83)。PAQ-C评分与AC (r = 0.41)、SE (r = 0.65)、%BF (r = 0.19)、CVF (r = -0.32)显著相关。WHO HBSC体力活动问卷中运动组PAQ-C评分(均分±标准差[SD] = 3.03±0.57)显著高于不运动组(均分±SD = 2.27±0.63,P)结论:PAQ-C具有可接受的信度和效度。PAQ-C是评估日本9至12岁儿童身体活动的有用工具。
