  1. VCE PE EXAM REVISION PART 1 Monitoring and Promotion of Physical Activity

  2. KEY POINTS • Point 1-4 of Revision Outline (benefits of PA) 4 Guidelines of Physical Activity (Point 6)

  3. Domains Examples Domains of Physical Activity Leisure-time physical activity Various types of activity; different surveys use generic or activity specific questions, and may ask details of activity frequency, duration and intensity. Gardening and yard work Various definitions, of varied intensities; may range from light-intensity gardening to vigorous chores or digging/moving heavy objects. Household chores Heterogeneous set of tasks; large gender differences; energy expenditure across tasks not well understood. Active transport Walking or cycling for transportation. Occupational physical activity Diverse occupations, with changes in energy expended in many occupations over recent decades.

  4. Dimensions of the National Physical Activity Guidelines Point 7 • F = frequency (how often) • I = intensity (amount of energy used) • D = duration (how long) • T = type (specific behaviours – what activity)

  5. NPAG (Point 8-10) p.6

  6. Methods of Assessing PA levels

  7. Test Yourself • Answer the following Multiple Choice Questions 1-8 • Answers: 1 B, 2 D, 3 A, 4 C, 5 D, 6 C, 7 D, 8 D

  8. Promotion of Physical Activity Factors Affecting Participation in PA ( Q 1) Gender: Females less Socio economic Status Race Geographic Location Age

  9. Age and Gender

  10. Gender - Greater proportions of males participate in sport and physical activity than females. Females generally have less opportunity and less access to sporting activities. Socioeconomic Status – Well educated white collar workers are the most physically active Australians. Income – People with higher incomes can participate in a wider variety of activities and more often. Race – People born in Australia are more active than those who were not. Race is often used as a form of discrimination, thus reducing participation. Geographic Location – Where you live can limit access to facilities and specific sports Barriers to ParticipationQ 4-7

  11. Barriers to Participation • Time • Motivation • Injury • Low Self Efficacy • Injury • Fun / Enjoyment

  12. Population based promotion Policy Environmental Mass media Population approaches are designed to reach large segments of society or specific population groups. Population based information is often collected by VicHealth, National Heart Foundation and various universities. Information collected is used to establish government priorities and initiatives Q 21 . Individual based promotion Theoretical models of change Print and web-based media Counselling and screening These strategies are often based on theoretical models of individual behaviour change Promotion of Physical Activity VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  13. Stages of Change(Also called the ‘transtheoretical model’)

  14. Processes of change can be grouped into two different categories: cognitive processes &behavioural processes. Table 2.2 pg 44. • Individuals in early stages (Stages 1 or 2) focus on cognitive strategies eg increasing awareness and knowledge of the benefits of physical activity. • Later Stages (Stages 3,4 and 5) might include behavioural strategies such as developing a reminder system an encouraging the use of rewards.

  15. Strategies for promoting PA VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  16. Behavioural and Cognitive Strategies • Q 14 • Behavioural: Action and Doing • Cognitive: Attitudes and Thinking • Q 17 • Self Efficacy: “Confidence in your ability to be active and engage in healthy behaviours”. • Q19, 20 • Relapse Moving Back a Stage. Usually at Action Stage.

  17. Population-based Promotion Policy Strategies POLICY Legislation – Formal, documented policies. Organisational policies – Bring about changes in behaviour within a particular organisation. eg. SunSmart in sporting clubs and schools. eg. ‘Smoke Free’ venues such as workplaces and sporting clubs. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  18. Tailoring – Changing physical environments to suit community needs. Eg. Walking track along Wimmera river promotes walking. Removing impediments to activity – Take away reasons for people not to participate in PA eg. Design walking tracks away from major highways/roads. 3. Introducing new resources and facilities – eg. New sports grounds, age specific playgrounds. 4. Support from other programs – eg. Reducing crime in an area will make people feel more safe to go for a walk. 5. Opening Hours – Opening sporting venues before and after business hours. Population-Based Promotion Environmental Strategies VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  19. Mass Media Campaigns • Go for Your Life (VIC) • Find 30 (WA) • 10,000 Steps (QLD) • Smartplay (SA) • Get Moving (National) VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  20. Why are people less physically active? Reliance on technology / motorised transport More people living in urban environments Changes in work practice / hours Changes in leisure patterns due to work / education needs Q 2,3 A setting is an area where the health message can be communicated. Examples include; Family Transport system Healthcare Workplace Community SchoolsEg. Walking to school program Multiple Settings A Settings Approach VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

  24. Health Promotion Strategies • Q 7: Victorian Gov’t: Go for your life' is a Victorian Government initiative which aims to promote healthy eating and increase levels of physical activity • Q 6 Active Script: aimed at increasing the number of Victorian General Practitioners who deliver timely and effective physical activity advice to their Patients • Q8 Local Govt: Focussing on local communities, local gov’t is in the best position to disrtibute funds in the interests of community groups. • Q9 Target Groups with State and National Gov’t: Young Australians (Aussie Sport), Senior Australians (Masters Sport), People with Disabilities (Willing and Able Program), Women in Sport (Active Girls Campaign), Indigenous (Koorie Sport Star Awards, Indigenous Mentoring Scheme), Ethnic Groups (Vic Ethnic Youth Dev’t Sport Program)

  25. Questions • Complete the Following Multiple Choice Questions: 9, then 1-8 (Strategies to promote PA) • 9 C, • Strategies to Promote PA • 1 C, 2 B, 3 D, 4 D, 5 A, 6 D, 7 B, 8 D,

  26. 2009 Practice Exam Answer short Answer Questions 1 & 2 Answers • Question 1a: any two of following: • Increase public awareness of PA as a public health issue • Provide info of health benefits of PA • Provide info about non-health benefits (eg social) • Info re consequences of inactivity • Increase public interest in PA • Motivate people into PA

  27. Quest 1B Set small achievable PA goals: • Goals to be written down. Goals specific, achievable and realistic. Goals small and then build toward maintaining PA goals. Be active with others Enlist social support by organising someone to be active with them. Having a friend or family member increases regular participation in PA

  28. 1C Individual strategies are designed to increase PA with individuals. Eg A Personal Trainer working with a client. Population strategies are designed to reach large numbers of people at a time. Eg. A TV commercial

  29. 1D 10 minutes is more achievable and 10 minutes is the minimum requirement to bring about health benefits.
