Abstract

Introduction: Physical and bodily activities could affect the QUALITY OF LIFE in children. In the present study, we decided to evaluate the relationship between the QUALITY OF LIFE and the amount of PHYSICAL ACTIVITY in children. With the research, it is possible to identify the interventional points for the management of the problem.Materials & Methods: The present research, was a cross sectional survey. A random sample of female students aged 8-12 years were entered to the study. Sampling method was multistage. Sample size was estimated 384 students. The generic of Iranian-version of pediatric QUALITY OF LIFE inventory (PedsQL 4.0) was used to measure HRQOL. In addition, some questions about the level and amount of activity were asked. Statistical methods that we used were T-test and ANOVA.Findings: Totally, 366 female students were selected for the study. The mean of age was 10.37 years (SD=1.13 years). Mean of total score of QUALITY OF LIFE was 84.45 (SD=10.16).The lowest mean of total score of QUALITY OF LIFE was 82.23 (SD=15.73) for emotional function and the highest mean of total score of QUALITY OF LIFE was 88.47 (SD=13.99) for social function. Relationship between social functioning score and VIDEO GAMEs was significant (P=0.03).Discussion & Conclusion: Because of the long time that students spend for VIDEO GAMEs, reduced QUALITY OF LIFE especially in the social and other functional affairs was evident. Therefore, more attention should be dedicated to this problem. Furthermore, structured programs and educational approaches for their parents are also needed.
