Abstract
Objectives: To examine how adolescent physical activity (PA)
and screen-based media sedentary behaviours (SBM) relate to
psychological and social health and identify cross-national differences
in these relationships.
Methods: Associations were examined in five regions using
two Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (HBSC) countries
from each.
Results: Self-reported psychological and social health indices
such as self-image, perceived health status, and Life Satisfaction
were positively related to PA in all five regions but, with
a few exceptions, negatively related to SBM. Negative health
indices such as health complaints and tobacco use were negatively
related to PA but, with exceptions, positively related to
SBM. Significant regional differences were present.
Conclusions: Regional differences in correlates of PA and SBM
suggest cultural differences in potential effects of PA and SBM
and the need to tailor school and public health efforts to the
different meanings of PA and SBM for positive and negative
health consequences.
