Influence of physical fitness components on personality factors and risk perception of children and adolescents: a cross-sectional study

Objectives

To examine the associations of cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2 max) and muscular strength with indicators related to the risk scale, such as perceived competence, sensation seeking, competitiveness, risk taking and risk perception in sports.

Design

Cross-sectional study.

Setting

High schools from the Region of Murcia (Spain).

Participants

Three-hundred-and-seventeen adolescents participated (mean age: 13.69±1.2 years old).

Primary and secondary outcome measures

Body mass, body height, Course-Navette test, upper limb strength and psychoeducational factors that determine the propensity towards sports accidents in school children, the Sports Accident Propensity Scale were evaluated. It was performance t-test for independent samples, stepwise multiple linear regression models and a multiple mediation analysis.

Results

The analysis showed significant differences with respect to sex in height, VO2 max, handgrip strength and in all factors of the questionnaire (p=0.02-2 max, strength in the handgrip test and age showed a higher score in factors 1 and 3. Higher scores in factor 2 were associated with better VO2 max and strength in handgrip test. Youngers and better values of strength in the handgrip showed higher score in factors 4 and 5. The mediation analysis with two mediating variables (handgrip strength and VO2 max) showed a significant indirect effect. When handgrip strength and VO2 max were included in the equations, the association between sex and each factor ceased to be significant.

Conclusion

This study highlights the potential benefits of muscular strength (handgrip) and VO2 max in the perceived risk scale, and the variable of age on this.

Trial registration number

Clinical trial: NCT05544370 (pre-results).

Trabajar de cuidar: hacia un diálogo entre Antropología del Trabajo y Enfermería

Este trabajo pretende sintetizar algunas reflexiones en torno al trabajo en Enfermería, recuperando aportes de la Antropología del Trabajo, la perspectiva del care, de género y de la reproducción. Se intentará desarrollar de manera sintética los aportes para pensar el trabajo como categoría social y su relación, incidencia y determinación sobre el ámbito de la salud-enfermedad. En otro apartado, se desarrollan algunos aspectos esenciales para entender la esfera de la reproducción y su implicancia para pensar los estereotipos y roles de género en torno al cuidado. Finalmente, se problematiza el trabajo del cuidado, su dinámica particular y características específicas, como un punto de partida para pensar el trabajo en Enfermería en el mundo actual.

 

ABSTRACT

This paper intends to synthesize some reflections on work in Nursing, recovering contributions from the Anthropology of Work, the perspective of care, gender and reproduction. It will try to develop in a synthetic way the contributions to think about work as a social category and its relation, incidence and determination on the health-illness field. In another section, some essential aspects are developed to understand the sphere of reproduction and its implications for thinking about gender stereotypes and roles around care. Finally, the work of care, its particular dynamics and specific characteristics, are problematized as a starting point for thinking about nursing work in today's world.
