Abstract

Purpose: The study aimed to analyze the average daily step counts of 12- and 13- year-old children in all-day or double-shift schools for defined periods. Materials and Methods: Sixty students (30 all-day, 30 double-shift) participated in the study; their mean age was 12.5±0.5 years. Children were asked to wear FitbitFlex 2 accelerometer on their dominant wrist. Data were collected from children for a minimum of eight hours for seven days (minimum of four weekdays and a weekend day). Findings: It was observed that the daily average step count of boys was higher than girls for after school, outside school, the weekend, and the entire week (p<0.05). In terms of daily average step count before and after school, there was significant difference between 12- and 13-year-old children (p<0.05). The daily average step count for children in all-day education was higher than that of children in double-shift schooling for during school, after school, and weekdays (p<0.05). The average daily step count before school in the double-shift school was higher than that in all-day school (p<0.05). More than half of both girls and boys did not achieve recommended daily step counts. Conclusion: The daily step count of boys was higher than girls. The step count of children during school in all-day education was higher than that of children in double- shift education. It was determined that the majority of students did not succeed to reach recommended step counts during school, and more than half failed to reach daily recommended step counts.

Özet

Amaç: Normal ve ikili eğitim verilen okullara devam eden, aktif ulaşım kullanmayan ve yapılandırılmış spor aktivitesine katılmayan 12 ve 13 yaşlarındaki çocukların; beden eğitimi dersinde, okul sırasında, okul dışında, hafta içi, hafta sonu ve tüm hafta için günlük adım sayılarını incelemek ve önerilen düzeyde fiziksel aktif olup olmadıklarını belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya normal eğitim verilen okuldan 30 (16 kız, 14 erkek), ikili eğitim verilen okuldan 30 (15 kız, 15 erkek) olmak üzere yaş ortalaması 12.5±0.5 olan 60 öğrenci katıldı. Çocuklardan Fitbit Flex 2 marka akselerometreyi yedi gün boyunca dominant el bileklerine giymeleri istendi. Günde en az sekiz saat olması koşuluyla hafta içi en az dört gün, hafta sonu en az bir günlük verisi olan çocukların verileri çalışmaya dahil edildi. Bulgular: Erkek çocukların okuldan sonra, okul dışı, hafta içi ve tüm haftaya ait günlük ortalama adım sayılarının kız çocuklardan daha fazla olduğu belirlendi (p<0.05). Okuldan önce ve okuldan sonra günlük ortalama adım sayıları bakımından 12 ve 13 yaş çocuklar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bul undu (p<0.05). Normal eğitim verilen okullara devam eden çocukların okul sırasında, okul sonrasında ve hafta içi günlerde günlük ortalama adım sayılarının ikili eğitim verilen okullara devam eden çocuklardan daha fazla olduğu; okuldan önce atılan günlük adım sayının ikili eğitim verilen okullara devam eden çocuklarda daha yüksek olduğu gözlendi (p<0.05). Hem kız hem de erkek çocukların yarısından fazlasının günlük önerilen adım sayısına ulaşamadığı belirlendi. Sonuç: Erkek çocukların günlük adım sayısının kız çocuklardan daha fazla olduğu, normal eğitim verilen okullara devam eden çocukların okul sırasındaki adım sayısının ikili eğitim verilen okullara devam eden çocuklardan yüksek olduğu gözlendi. Öğrencilerin büyük çoğunluğunun okul sırasında önerilen adım sayısına, yarısından fazlasının ise günlük önerilen adım sayısına ulaşamadığı saptandı.
