- PublicationOpen AccessHealthy diet and physical activity in schoolchildren aged 10-12 years(2024) Alonso-Vargas, José Manuel; Melguizo Ibáñez, Eduardo; Puertas Molero, Pilar; Caracuel-Cáliz, RafaelCurrently, obesity and overweight have become a very important problem throughout the society of developed countries. The increasing number of children who present obesity or weight problems can be influenced by the type of diet that they follow. The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the influence of the practice of physical activity and adherence to Mediterranean diet on the problem of obesity and focus on the differences regarding to gender. The study followed a descriptive, non-experimental design. It was carried out with the help of 346 schoolchildren from different schools from Granada who had to fill the KIDMED, PAQ-C and ad hoc questionnaires. As core results, it was found that boys show a greater adherence to Mediterranean diet and practice a higher level of physical activity than girls, but there is a bigger percentage of overweight boys.

- PublicationOpen AccessInfluence of physical activity on myopic Brazilian adults: A pilot study(2024) Dias de Jesus, Eduarda Eugenia; Rosa, Alexandre; Rodrigues, Luiz Henrique; Cortes Morales, Pedro JorgeThis study aimed to analyze the influence of physical activity on Brazilians with myopia. Sixty-three Brazilians with myopia participated. A questionnaire was used to identify the sample and the "Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire" (HPAQ) was applied. In females, we found that the relationship of myopia with the night shift shows a moderate correlation (0.572) with a predominance of the right eye suggesting a higher incidence in this group. Sitting position at work shows a correlation as the inability to see at a distance, and this is a moderate correlation (0.585) for males. In view of this we see that there are other variables that can prevent the decrease of myopia, in which it is considerable to affirm that physical exercise alone is not enough for this population.
- PublicationOpen AccessMotivation in Physical Education class according to sex, age, level of physical activity and adherence to the Mediterranean diet(Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Gascón Colorado, Jorge; Maneiro Dios, Rubén; Garrote Jurado, Ramón; Moral García, José EnriqueThe objective of this study was to analyze students' motivation toward physical education (PE) classes and to examine how this motivation is associated with sex, age, level of physical activity, and adherence to the Mediterranean diet among schoolchildren. The sample consisted of 564 students between the ages of 10 and 13, of whom 53.2% were boys and 46.8% were girls. To gather data, several instruments were administered, including a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Physical Education Class Motivation Questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (IPAQ-A), and the KIDMED index, which assesses adherence to the Mediterranean diet. The findings revealed a generally high level of satisfaction with PE classes among participants. Furthermore, boys reported higher levels of motivation compared to girls. Students with medium adherence to the Mediterranean diet demonstrated greater intrinsic motivation, suggesting that healthier dietary patterns may be linked to internal drivers for participation in physical activity. Additionally, students who reported being very physically active showed higher levels of extrinsic motivation, indicating that external factors may play a role in encouraging participation in physical activity among this group.
- PublicationOpen Access¿Se asocia el autoconcepto y la inteligencia emocional con los hábitos saludables y el rendimiento escolar? Un modelo estructural según sexo(Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Pérez Mármol, Mariana; Castro Sánchez, Manuel; Gamarra Vengoechea, María Alejandra; Chacón Cuberos, RamónLa promoción del desempeño académico a través de hábitos físico-saludables ha sido objeto de estudios en las últimas décadas. Este estudio pretende conocer las relaciones entre varios factores psicosociales, el grado de adherencia a la dieta mediterránea (DM), la práctica de actividad física (AF) y el rendimiento académico según el sexo de 1650 estudiantes de Educación Secundaria [♂ = 50,42% (n=832); ♀ = 49,57% (n=818)], con una edad media de 14,47 años (DT = 1,41; R = 9). El diseño metodológico es descriptivo-exploratorio, de corte transversal y ex pos-facto, a través de un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Se utilizó el cuestionario CAF para el autoconcepto físico, el cuestionario PAQ-A para evaluar la AF, el test KIDMED para la adherencia a la DM y la escala TMMS-24 para la inteligencia emocional. Los resultados reflejaron que existe asociación entre las dimensiones del autoconcepto físico, con mayor fortaleza para la condición y habilidad física en ambos sexos. Se observó una relación positiva entre la AF y las dimensiones condición física, fuerza y habilidad física del autoconcepto físico, en especial para los chicos, siendo la calidad en la alimentación más relevante para la condición física en el caso de las chicas. A su vez, la IE y los hábitos saludables estuvieron positivamente relacionados, sin encontrar hallazgos entre IE y rendimiento académico de forma específica. Por último, se determinó una relación positiva y leve entre hábitos saludables y rendimiento académico, reflejando algunas de las bondades de estos hábitos para la función cognitiva.
