Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between physical exercise and parenting styles, and psychological resilience among college students, in order to provide guidance for improving college students physical exercise status.
Methods:From September 10, 2022 to January 6, 2023, 1 227 students from three comprehensive universities in Jinan were selected for investigation using a stratified random sampling and convenient sampling method. Physical exercise was assessed using the Physical Activity Rating Scale, parenting style was evaluated with the short-Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran for Chinese (s-EMBU-C), and psychological resilience was measured by the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents (RSCA). The influence of parenting style and psychological resilience on physical exercise was explored by Pearson correlation analysis, linear and Logistic regression analysis.
Results:A total of 815 (66.42%) engaged in lowintensity exercise, 308 (25.10%) in moderateintensity exercise, and 104 (8.48%) in highintensity exercise. The total score on the Physical Activity Rating Scale was (22.15±0.72). Logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=1.58, 95%CI=1.07-2.33) and whether the student was a sports specialist (OR=1.61, 95%CI=1.17-2.22) were the related factors for college students physical exercise classification(P<0.05). Linear regression analysis showed that emotional warmth dimensions of the s-EMBU-C (mother version and father version), the total score of s-EMBU-C(mother version), positive cognition, emotional control and the total score of RSCA all affected the physical activity level of college students (β=0.29, 0.20, 0.26, 0.32, 0.15, 0.20, P<0.05).
Conclusions:College students physical exercise behavior is closely related to gender, sports specialization, parenting styles, and psychological resilience. Colleges and universities can promote changes in physical exercise behavior among college students through joint parental supervision and psychological counseling.
