Resumo: The aim of this study was to verify the existence of significant differences in levels of physical activity, sedentary habits and consumption of tobacco and alcohol among boys and girls. The sample consisted of 815 adolescents from 11.0 to 15.9 years (409 boys and 406 girls) enrolled in public schools in the city of Curitiba, State of Parana. To assess the level of physical activity (PA) was used questionnaire Youth Activity Profile. For the evaluation of time spent in sedentary activities was used Sedentary Activities Questionnaire for Adolescents. For the identification of cigarette and alcohol consumption were version of the questions used in the Brazilian version of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS). Descriptive analysis was used to characterize the sample. For comparisons, we used the Mann-Whitney U test for comparison between groups for the scores of physical activity and sedentary time, the chi-square test for cigarette and alcohol consumption, adopting p<0.05. The mean age was 14±2.5 years for boys and 13.74±2.1 for girls. Boys had higher scores of AF in school (2.6 vs 2.1, p=0.000), AF at home (2.3 vs 2.0, p=0.000), AF at the weekend (2.5 vs 2.5, p=0.000) and total physical activity (2.3 vs 1.8, p=0.000). Of teens who reported having drunk at least one day in the last 30 days, 55.7% were female and 44.3% were boys. Other variables were not significant when compared between the sexes. The boys were more active than girls in all analyzed environments and also in the overall AF. In the case of girls, they were more susceptible to alcohol consumption when compared to their male counterparts. The variables sedentary behavior and cigarette smoking were not significant.

Contudo atingir os níveis recomendados de atividade física é um importante fator para a prevenção destas doenças. Meninos e meninas apresentam diferentes características comportamentais que podem influenciar nos níveis de atividade física e adoção de comportamentos de risco a saúde, tanto na infância quanto na adolescência. Tais fatores podem estar relacionados com diversas questões biológicas, sociais e culturais objetivo do estudo foi verificar a existência de diferenças significativas nos níveis de atividade física, hábitos sedentários e consumo de cigarro e bebida alcoólica entre meninos e meninas. A amostra foi composta por 815 adolescentes de 11,0 a 15,9 anos (409 meninos e 406 meninas), matriculados na rede pública de ensino da cidade de Curitiba, Paraná. Para avaliar o nível de atividade física (AF) foi utilizado o questionário Youth Activity Profile. Para a avaliação do tempo gasto em atividades sedentárias foi utilizado o Questionário de Atividades Sedentárias para Adolescentes. Para a identificação do consumo de cigarro e bebida alcoólica foram utilizadas questões da versão em português do Youth Risk Behavior Survey. A análise descritiva foi utilizada para a caracterização da amostra. Foi utilizado o teste U de Mann-Whitney para a comparação entre os grupos para os escores de Atividade física e o tempo sedentário, e o teste Qui-quadrado para o consumo de álcool e cigarro, adotando p<0,05.  A média de idade foi de 14 anos com DP ±2,5 para meninos e 13,7com DP ±2,1 para as meninas. Meninos apresentaram maiores scores de AF na escola (2,6 vs 2,1, p=0,000), AF em casa (2,3 vs 2,0, p=0,000), AF no final de semana (2,5 vs 2,5, p=0,000) e AF total (2,3 vs 1,8, p=0,000). Dos adolescentes que responderam ter bebido ao menos um dia nos últimos 30 dias, 55,7% eram meninas e 44,3% eram meninos. Outras variáveis não se mostraram significativas quando comparadas entre os sexos. Os meninos se mostraram mais ativos do que as meninas em todos os ambientes analisados e também na AF total. No caso das meninas, elas se mostraram mais suscetíveis ao consumo de álcool quando comparadas aos seus pares do sexo masculino. As variáveis de comportamento sedentário e consumo de cigarro não se mostraram significativas.Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná2017-07-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/cadernoedfisica/article/view/1686210.36453/2318-5104.2016.v14.n1.p37Caderno de Educação Física e Esporte; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2016): Caderno de Educação Física e Esporte; 37-43Caderno de Educação Física e Esporte; v. 14 n. 2 (2016): Caderno de Educação Física e Esporte; 37-432318-50902318-5104reponame:Caderno de Educação Física e Esporteinstname:Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná (UNIOESTE)instacron:UNIOESTEporhttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/cadernoedfisica/article/view/16862/pdfCopyright (c) 2017 Direitor Autorais Partilhadoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMalta, Nicolau AugustoMartins, Gabriela CansianDa Silva, Michael PereiraFantinelli, Edmar RobertoCampos, Jhonatan GrittenDe Campos, Wagner2023-07-27T17:29:52Zoai:ojs.e-revista.unioeste.br:article/16862Revistahttps://e-revista.unioeste.br/index.php/cadernoedfisica/indexPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/intexto/oairevista.cefe@unioeste.br || projeto.saber@unioeste.br2318-50902318-5090opendoar:2023-07-27T17:29:52Caderno de Educação Física e Esporte - Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná (UNIOESTE)false
