Youths struggle to understand physical activity intensity, but age-specific 3D models show promise. These tangible tools may improve comprehension of recommended activity levels for children and adolescents.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Exercise Science
  • Behavioral Science
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Many UK youths do not meet daily physical activity guidelines.
  • Difficulty interpreting physical activity intensity is a key barrier.
  • 3D printed models offer tangible, personalized feedback for physical activity education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore children's and adolescents' understanding of physical activity intensity.
  • To assess the interpretability of age-specific 3D models for physical activity feedback.
  • To evaluate youths' ability to match activities to intensity levels using 3D models.

Main Methods:

  • Individual semistructured interviews with 12 primary school children and 12 secondary school adolescents.
  • Interactive tasks assessing identification of physical activity intensities.

  • Content analysis of transcribed interviews and visual representations of outcomes.

    • Main Results:

    • Youths across age groups had poor understanding of moderate-intensity activities.
    • Both children and adolescents struggled to correctly identify light and vigorous activity intensities.
    • While able to interpret 3D model components, children had difficulty differentiating represented intensities.

    Conclusions:

    • Age-specific 3D models have potential for improving youths' grasp of physical activity guidelines.
    • Tangible feedback may enhance understanding of recommended physical activity intensities.
    • Further research into 3D models for physical activity education is warranted.
