Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of demographic, psychological, social and environmental factors with PHYSICAL ACTIVITY and to determine whether indicators of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY differ by gender among Macedonian ADOLESCENTs from Albanian ethnic community from 11 to 14 yr (N=886).Methods: Research were conducted in 2014 in several primary schools randomly selected from Tetovo and Gostivar region of the R. Macedonia. Students completed a questionnaire which examined their level of participation in PHYSICAL ACTIVITY and SEDENTARY behavior along with a number of potential correlates. Hierarchical regression was used to ex-plore the relationship between hypothesised factors and PHYSICAL ACTIVITY.Results: The boys unlike the girls showed significantly higher levels of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY (P=0.001). Respondents of both genders who perceive greater benefits from the PHYSICAL ACTIVITY (P=0.010). They have more confidence in their abilities (P=0.001), enjoy more in the physical activities (P=0.016), perceive greater SOCIAL SUPPORT from friends (P=0.008) and parents (P=0.001) and have higher levels of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY.Conclusions: The results indicate the importance of developing a national plan and program to promote PHYSICAL ACTIVITY in order to help young people to change unhealthy lifestyle habits and increase the PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, thus im-proving their health.
