Abstract

The changing nature of technology has influenced the physical activity behaviour of working adults in tropical-built environments. Existing physical activity interventions show a lack of diversity in delivery strategies and limited local context community assimilation measures. This study aims to provide a perspective on the interventions implemented to promote physical activity in urban and rural neighbourhoods in tropical regions. Three analytical themes were synthesised from 29 screened qualitative and quantitative literature: the social context, the environmental factors and the mechanisms to promote physical activity in the built environment. The findings recognise the importance of spatial heterogeneity in physical activity promotion at midstream and downstream intervention levels in a tropical built environment. A multifaceted intervention model for positive physical activity behaviour change (MIPA) consisting of built environment variables, micro-climate conscious design, health awareness and self-efficacy factors according to the tropical built environments context is proposed.
身体活动作为热带建筑环境中的健康决定因素:一个多方面的干预
技术性质的变化影响了热带建筑环境中工作成年人的身体活动行为。现有的身体活动干预措施表明,提供策略缺乏多样性,当地社区同化措施有限。本研究旨在为促进热带地区城市和农村社区体育活动的干预措施提供一个视角。从29篇筛选过的定性和定量文献中合成了三个分析主题:社会背景、环境因素和促进建筑环境中身体活动的机制。研究结果认识到,在热带建筑环境中游和下游干预水平上,空间异质性对促进体育活动的重要性。根据热带建筑环境背景,提出了一个由建筑环境变量、微气候意识设计、健康意识和自我效能因素组成的积极身体活动行为改变(MIPA)的多方面干预模型。
