Also, there was a significant relationship between the ADOLESCENTs’ regular EXERCISE and the mothers’ EXERCISE. Statistically, a significant correlation between the mothers’ attitude and educational degree and the level of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY was shown.Conclusion: According to our results, a sedentary life style among female ADOLESCENTs is higher than expected which is associated with mother’s pattern of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY and affected by the attitude and educational level of mothers.
