Abstract

Background: Adolescence is a critical developmental stage marked by complex transitions. The purpose of study was to assess school ADOLESCENTS’ PWB, examine the relationship of PA and socio-demographic factors with PWB.Methods: A cross sectional study conducted in five randomly selected schools with 345 ADOLESCENTS (aged 12-18) from grade 6th-10th. A self-administered Well-Being index was adapted to measure PWB and questionnaire for ADOLESCENTS PA (PAQ-A). Socio-demographic variables determined: age, gender, household income and parental education. Bivariate and multivariate regression analyses performed to examine the association between PWB, PA and covariates.Results: Findings indicated the mean age 14.64 (SD=1.275), 55.4% were female. Without gender difference the majority (43.4%) of ADOLESCENTS showed moderate, while (23.2%) revealed low level of PWB. Participants with low level likely to have depression but scores were significantly not different between low, moderate and high PWB with PA. Socio-demographic trends of ADOLESCENTS’ were observed significant (P<0.005) for PWB. In multivariable analysis the mean wellbeing in females adjusted for other covariates was significant (P=0.004) than males. PWB importantly (P<0.001) decreased by 3.36 units as its covariates increased and PA score in boys found 0.05 unit more than girls.Conclusion: The study results are invaluable in addressing low, moderate and high levels of PWB. Inadequate PA and PWB decreasing with some socio-demographic covariates is crucial HEALTH issue among female ADOLESCENTS in Pakistan. Further studies need to find barrier, social indicators of PWB and implication of HEALTH among ADOLESCENTS.
