Abstract

Amaç: Fiziksel aktivite yetersizliği ile ilişkili spesifik kadın tutum ve davranışlarını çok az çalışma incelemiştir. Bu çalışmada,
Nijerya’lı kadınlarda, fiziksel aktivite yetersizliğinin görülme sıklığı ve kadınların kişisel özellikleri ve psikososyal faktörlerle
ilişkisi incelendi.

Yöntem: Bu kesitsel anket çalışmasına Nijerya, Osun Eyaleti, Ile-Ife'den 18-65 yaşları arasında 1560 kadın katıldı. Çalışmaya
alınanları belirlemek için çok aşamalı bir örnekleme tekniği kullanıldı. Kadınların sosyo-demografik özellikleri, kişisel
tutumları, doğum sayısı ve menopoz durumu hakkında veriler elde edildi. Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi kullanılarak son
yedi gündeki fiziksel aktivite seviyeleri değerlendirildi. Öz yeterlik, sosyal destek ve algılanan egzersiz bariyeri gibi psikososyal
faktörler geçerliliği onaylanmış anketler kullanılarak değerlendirildi.

Bulgular: Görüşülen kişiler arasında fiziksel aktivite yetersizliğinin görülme sıklığı % 32,5 idi. Sonuçlar, yaşlı kadınların
(OR=0.49), yüksek gelirli kadınların (OR=0.54), menopozdan sonrası dönemdeki kadınların (OR=0.34), birden fazla doğum
yapan kadınların (OR=0.58) ve algılanan bariyeri yüksek olan kadınların (OR=0.34) fiziksel olarak aktif olma olasılığının da
daha düşük olduğunu gösterdi. Bunun aksine, yüksek eğitim düzeyi (OR=2.16) ve öz yeterliğine sahip olan kadınların ise
(OR=2.12) fiziksel olarak daha aktif olduğu kaydedildi.

Sonuç: Ankete katılan Nijeryalı kadınlar arasında fiziksel aktivite yetersizliği görülme sıklığı, sosyodemografik özellikler ve
kadınların kişisel özelliklerine göre farklılık göstermektedir. Birden fazla doğum yapma, menopozal durum ve psikososyal
faktörler fiziksel inaktivite ile anlamlı şekilde ilişkiliydi.

Prevalence of physical inactivity among Nigerian women: do socio-demographic characteristics, women’s personal attributes and psychosocial factors play any role?

Abstract

Purpose: Few studies have examined specific women’s attributes and factors associated with physical inactivity. This study
investigated the prevalence of physical inactivity and its associations with women's personal characteristics and psychosocial
factors among Nigerian women.

Methods: This cross-sectional survey recruited 1560 women whose ages ranged between 18 and 65 years from Ile - Ife, Osun
State, Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to recruit the respondents. Data on socio-demographic
characteristics, women’s personal attributes including parity and menopausal status were obtained. Physical activity was
assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire over the last seven days. Psychosocial factors including selfefficacy, social support, and perceived exercise barrier were evaluated using validated questionnaires.

Results: Prevalence of physical inactivity among respondents was 32.5%. The results showed that older women (OR=0.49),
those with a high income (OR=0.54), post-menopausal (OR=0.34), multiparous women (OR=0.58), those with a high
perceived barrier (OR=0.34) were less likely to be physically active. However, women with high educational level (OR=2.16)
and those with high self-efficacy (OR=2.12) were more likely to be physically active.

Conclusion: The prevalence of physical inactivity among Nigerian women differs across socio-demographic characteristics
and women’s personal attributes. Multi-parity, menopausal status, and psychosocial factors were significantly associated
with physical inactivity.
