PEREZ SOTO, Juan José et al. Relationship between intention to be physically active and after-school physical activity. Revista de Psicología [online]. 2019, vol.37, n.2, pp.389-405. ISSN 0254-9247.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/psico.201902.001.

The aim of this study was to observe the relationship between the intention to be physically active and the after-school physical activity among 408 schoolchildren. The Previous Day Physical Activity Recall (PDPAR) was administered to measure physical activity, while the Intention to be Physically Active Scale (MIFA) was administered to measure the intention to be physically active. The results showed a significant association between the intention to be active and the average time involved in after-school physical activity from moderate to vigorous intensity in males and females. Physical activity levels increase as the intention to be active increases.

Palabras clave : intention; physical activity; schoolchildren; habits.
