特別支援学校に通う中学2年生の学校生活での身体活動量の特徴

　In this study, data from a survey completed before the spread of COVID-19 were used to measure the amount of physical activity in school among eighth graders attending special-needs schools and compared with the WHO Guidelines for Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior. The subjects were 16 eighth graders in public special-needs schools. In addition to height and weight, the physical activity survey during school life was measured using a uniaxial accelerometer (Kenz Lifecorder GS 4-second version: LC). 7534 ± 2275 steps/day for boys, 6411 ± 1614 steps/day for girls, and middle and high intensity activity time (MVPA) was 19.3 ± 10.3 minutes/day for boys and 16.7 ± 8.3 minutes/day for girls. These results suggest that eighth graders attending special needs schools are well below the WHO Guidelines for Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior standard of 60 minutes/day for children and adolescents with disabilities (5-17 years old ) for both boys and girls.
