Increased physical activities among adolescents : An literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Introduktion: Fysisk aktivitet är en av de viktigaste skyddsfaktorerna för en god hälsa. Dock går den fysiska aktiviteten ner, inte minst bland ungdomar. Hela 67% av 11-åringar och omkring 75% av 15-åringar i Sverige når inte upp till målen om att vara fysiskt aktiv minst en timme om dagen. Idrottsrörelsen i Sverige lockar många men visar också på minskade medlemsantal. Inom idrotten finns också en svårighet att nå ungdomar med låg socioekonomisk status. Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar ungdomars fysiska aktivitet samt om olika typer av aktiviteter attraherar olika målgrupper. Metod: En litteraturöversikt genomfördes där både kvalitativa och kvantitativa data användes via databaserna PubMed, och CINAHL. Tematisk analys användes som analysmetod. Resultat: Fysisk aktivitet bygger på möjligheter till stöd, självbestämmande, förutsättningar i familjen och socioekonomiska förutsättningar. Skolan är en viktig aktör i att skapa medvetenhet och sprida information om vikten av fysisk aktivitet. Stöttning från vuxna och möjlighet att påverka är viktigt för att ungdomar ska vara fysiskt aktiva. Slutsats: Ungdomar behöver stöd och information för att bli fysiskt aktiva. Skola, fritidsverksamhet och vårdnadshavare behöver stötta alla ungdomar och erbjuda möjlighet till fysisk aktivitet.

Abstract [en]

Introduction: Physical activity is one of the most important protective factors for good health. However, physical activity is declining, not least among young people. As many as 67% of 11-year-olds and around 75% of 15-year-olds in Sweden do not reach the goals of being physically active for at least one hour a day. The sports movement in Sweden attracts many but also shows reduced membership numbers. In sports, there are also difficulties in reaching young people with low socio-economic status. Aim: The aim was to investigate which factors affect young people's physical activity and whether different types of activities attract different target groups. Method: A literature review was conducted using both qualitative and quantitative data via the databases PubMed and CINAHL. Thematic analysis was used as the analysis method. Results: Physical activity is based on opportunities for support, self-determination, conditions in the family and socio-economic conditions. The school is an important arena in creating awareness and disseminating information about the importance of physical activity. Support from adults and the opportunity to influence is important for young people to be physically active. Conclusion: Young people need support and information to become physically active. School, leisure activities and guardians need to support all young people and offer opportunities for physical activity.
