Validez de Constructo del Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad Física en Universitarios Españoles

Abstract

Este estudio tuvo como objetivo aportar información sobre la validez de constructo de la versión corta adaptada al español del cuestionario IPAQ empleando como variable de contraste la condición física. Estudio longitudinal-correlacional en el que 64 estudiantes universitarios (75% hombres) contestaron el IPAQ y realizaron tests de eficiencia cardiovascular, fuerza, agilidad y flexibilidad, durante tres años. Se encontraron correlaciones significativas y mantenidas en el tiempo entre la estimación de la cantidad total de actividad física realizada semanalmente y las capacidades testadas, exceptuando la flexibilidad. La categoría actividad física vigorosa y la variable tiempo sentado mostraron correlaciones significativas con varias capacidades físicas también de manera continuada. Los resultados obtenidos informan positivamente sobre la validez de constructo de la versión corta del cuestionario IPAQ, si bien existe cierta tendencia hacia la sobreestimación de la actividad física realizada cuando el mismo es empleado. Es necesario el realizar futuros estudios con poblaciones más heterogéneas

This study aimed at providing information regarding the construct validity of the short Spanish adapted version of the IPAQ questionnaire, using physical fitness as a comparison variable. A total of 64 university students (75% men) responded to the IPAQ and carried out cardiovascular, strength, agility and flexibility fitness tests, during three years. Significant and sustained correlations were found between the estimated total amount of physical activity performed per week and the fitness dimensions tested,with the exception of flexibility. Sustained and significant correlations were also observed between the vigorous physical activity category, the sitting time variableand several fitness dimensions. The obtained results report positively on the construct validity of the short version of the IPAQ questionnaire, although there is some tendency to over report the amount of physical activity performed when it is administered. In this regard, future studies including heterogeneous samples are needed
