ABSTRACT

The purposes of the present study were a) to evaluate the construct validity of a questionnaire measuring parental physical activity (PA) orientation, and b) to examine the association between constructs of parental PA orientation and parental explicit PA modelling in parents of young children with disabilities. One hundred and thirty-five participants completed an online questionnaire. Exploratory factor analysis was used to examine the construct validity of a questionnaire for parental PA orientation. Exploratory factor analysis for parental PA orientation revealed a four-factor solution, accounting for 59.02% of the variance with eigenvalues of 7.14, 6.88, 4.00, and 2.35 for factor 1 (parent-perceived motor performance of their child), factor 2 (parental enjoyment of PA), factor 3 (parental importance of PA), and factor 4 (parental awareness of accessible PA program), respectively. Two hierarchical multiple regression models were developed and used to examine the association between constructs of parental PA orientation and parental explicit PA modelling. Parental enjoyment and importance of PA were significant factors predicting parental explicit PA modelling, controlling for child’s age and parent’s age. The results of the current study may be used for resources when developing an intervention for parental explicit PA modelling in parents of children with disabilities.

摘要

本研究的目的是 a) 评估测量父母身体活动 (PA) 取向的问卷的结构有效性，以及 b) 检查父母 PA 取向的结构与父母外显 PA 建模之间的关联残疾。一百三十五名参与者完成了一份在线问卷。探索性因素分析用于检查父母 PA 取向问卷的结构有效性。父母 PA 取向的探索性因素分析揭示了一个四因素解决方案，占方差的 59.02%，因素 1（父母对孩子的运动表现）、因素 2（父母对孩子的运动表现）的特征值为 7.14、6.88、4.00 和 2.35享受 PA），因素 3（家长对 PA 的重要性），和因素 4（父母对无障碍 PA 计划的认识）。开发了两个分层多元回归模型，并用于检查父母 PA 定向结构与父母显式 PA 建模之间的关联。父母享受和 PA 的重要性是预测父母显式 PA 建模的重要因素，控制孩子的年龄和父母的年龄。当前研究的结果可用于开发针对残疾儿童父母的父母显性 PA 建模的干预措施的资源。父母享受和 PA 的重要性是预测父母显式 PA 建模的重要因素，控制孩子的年龄和父母的年龄。当前研究的结果可用于开发针对残疾儿童父母的父母显性 PA 建模的干预措施的资源。父母享受和 PA 的重要性是预测父母显式 PA 建模的重要因素，控制孩子的年龄和父母的年龄。在为残疾儿童父母的父母外显 PA 建模制定干预措施时，当前研究的结果可用作资源。
