- W2887484759 abstract "This study investigates the perceptions of barriers and benefits of participating in physical activity and the levels of physical activity of children attending farm schools in Alma-Vaalwater area. A total of 344 primary and secondary school children (185 boys and 159 girls) aged 15 to 16 years participated in the study. A standardized questionnaire designed by Desmond et al. (1990) was used to gather information on perceptions of barriers and benefits of participation in physical activity. In addition Previous Day Physical Activity Recall (PDPAR) questionnaire was used to assess the levels of physical activity. The results show high mean values in 'lack of time', 'to do work/school work' and 'lack of skills' as the three most dominant barriers for participating in physical activity. Regarding the benefits, high mean values were found regarding 'to stay in good health', 'to feel well' and 'to have energy' were found to be the three dominant factors. Significant gender differences regarding the levels of physical activity with girls participating more in light physical activities than boys, were found. This study recommends the need for the introduction of awareness programmes on the importance of physical activity for the improvement of general well-being. More studies with a larger sample size are required to verify the present findings." @default.
