Resumo: | OBJECTIVE: To develop a physical activity questionnaire aimed at Brazilian adolescents and to assess its validity and reproducibility. METHODS: A total of 94 adolescents (30 males and 64 females) aged 11-16 years were included in the study, which was conducted in 2004. The questionnaire comprised 17 questions on habitual physical activity in the last 12 months (15 questions on sports and physical exercise and two on transportation physical activity), and was standardized to yield final scores for weekly and yearly activity. As a reference, we used the multistage 20-meter shuttle run test, measuring variables maximum time in minutes, maximum speed, maximum oxygen uptake and maximum heart rate. For validity analysis, we used the Spearman coefficient and age-adjusted correlation. For reproducibility analysis, we repeated evaluations after 15 days and measured the intraclass correlation coefficient. RESULTS: For the weekly score, the highest correlations were obtained for maximum time for the entire sample (r=0.19), maximum speed for males (r=0.20), and both maximum oxygen uptake and maximum time for females (r=0.17). For the yearly score, the highest correlations were obtained for maximum time for the entire sample (r=0.30), maximum heart rate for males (r=0.22), and maximum time for females (r=0.23). In reproducibility analyses, correlations were 0.61 for weekly score and 0.68 for yearly score. CONCLUSIONS: The questionnaire was valid and reproducible. Its use is recommended for the evaluation of physical activity in epidemiological studies with adolescents. |

OBJETIVO: Desenvolver um questionário de atividade física para adolescentes brasileiros e verificar sua validade e reprodutibilidade. MÉTODOS: Participaram do estudo 94 adolescentes (30 meninos e 64 meninas) com idade entre 11 a 16 anos, em 2004. O questionário foi composto por 17 questões sobre atividades habituais exercidas nos últimos 12 meses (exercícios físicos/esportes e atividades de locomoção) e foi padronizado para gerar escores semanal e anual. Como método de referência utilizou-se o teste de corrida vai-e-vem de 20 metros com as variáveis tempo em minutos, velocidade máxima em km/h, consumo máximo de oxigênio e freqüência cardíaca máxima. Para a análise de validação, foram utilizados o coeficiente de Spearman e correlação ajustada por idade. Para a análise da reprodutibilidade, utilizou-se medida repetida com intervalo de 15 dias e coeficiente de correlação intraclasse. RESULTADOS: Para o escore semanal de atividade física, os maiores coeficientes de correlação foram obtidos com o tempo total para a análise em conjunto (r=0,19), velocidade total para os meninos (r=0,20), e consumo máximo de oxigênio e tempo total para as meninas (r=0,17). Para o escore anual de atividade física, os maiores coeficientes de correlação foram obtidos com o tempo total para a análise em conjunto (r=0,30), freqüência cardíaca final após o ajuste pela idade para os meninos (r=0,22) e tempo total para as meninas (r=0,23). Nas análises de reprodutibilidade, a correlação do escore semanal foi de 0,61 e a do escore anual foi de 0,68. CONCLUSÕES: O questionário apresentou evidências de validade e reprodutibilidade. Recomenda-se sua utilização para avaliação da atividade física habitual em estudos epidemiológicos com adolescentes. Universidade de São Paulo.
