PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES AND INITIAL FINDINGS OF THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY STAGES OF CHANGE QUESTIONNAIRE AMONG TURKISH
Öz
The purpose of this study is twofold: 1 to determine the concurrent validity and reliability of the Physical Activity Stages of Change Questionnaire among Turkish 6th to 8th grade students, and 2 to examine 6th to 8th grade students’ stages of change for physical activity PA by sex. Participants n=334 completed the Physical Activity Stages of Change Questionnaire and One-Week Physical Activity Recall questionnaire. The Pearson chi-square distribution was used to evaluate concurrent validity, and the test-retest calculation was used for reliability. The chi-square findings revealed a significant difference in PA scores at different stages of change. The test-retest value was also calculated as acceptable. Regarding the second research question, results indicated a significant difference by sex in stages of change. Further analysis revealed that a lower percentage of girls were in the maintenance stage than boys. Girls had a problem maintaining PA behavior compared to boys. It can be stated that the Turkish Physical Activity Stages of Change Questionnaire has indicated concurrent validity and reliability of evidence among Turkish 6th to 8th graders. Future intervention studies on girls’ PA behaviors should be structured using the stages of change levels, and more PA opportunities should be made available to them
