Resumo: Objective: To evaluate if the variables child’s sex, age, presence of siblings, parents working remotely, and external space affect the level of physical activity (PA) of Brazilian children during social distancing imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: An online questionnaire was applied by the LimeSurvey software from March to April 2020. Children were divided into four age groups, and the questionnaire comprised questions on family and household characteristics, domestic and children’s routines in the period of Brazilian social distancing. Based on the answers concerning children’s activities, the following variable was created: percentage of physical activity (%PA) in one-day period. Analysis of variance and regression analysis were performed to investigate the effect of demographic and parental activities on %PA. Results: The %PA decreases with increasing age, but increases with the availability of external space at home. No significant or interaction effects were observed for other variables. Age and external space at home are predictors of %PA. Conclusions: Household and personal characteristics of Brazilian children influence the level of physical activity performed by them during social

Métodos: Aplicou-se questionário online pelo LimeSurvey, em março e abril de 2020, sobre características familiares e habitacionais, rotinas domésticas e infantis no período de distanciamento social brasileiro, sendo as crianças divididas em quatro grupos etários. Com base nas atividades infantis realizadas, criou-se a porcentagem de atividade física (%AF) em relação ao período de um dia e foi desenvolvida análise de variância para investigar o efeito das variáveis na %AF, além de análise de regressão. Resultados: A %AF diminui conforme o aumento da idade, mas aumenta com a disponibilidade de espaço externo no domicílio. Não houve efeito significativo para as demais variáveis, tampouco efeito de interação. A idade e o espaço externo ao domicílio são preditores da %AF. Conclusões: Características habitacionais e pessoais das crianças brasileiras influenciam o nível de atividade física realizada por elas durante o distanciamento social. Medidas preventivas podem ser empregadas caso haja necessidade de outro período semelhante.RCIPLSiegle, CristhinaPombo, AndréLuz, CarlosRodrigues, Luis P.Cordovil, R.Sá, Cristina2022-07-20T11:20:33Z20212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/14853engSiegle, Cristhina Bonilha Huster et al.
