Sisällön kuvaus

The survey was part of a multifaceted evaluation of neighbourhood sports facilities carried out by Young Finland Association. Data were collected from four different sources: from project managers of sports facility construction projects (FSD2537), children and young people in the neighbourhood where the facility is located (FSD2535), their parents (FSD2536), and schools if the facility was located in the schoolyard (FSD2538). The main themes in the children and young people survey were physical activities taken at school break times and physical exercise taken during leisure time.

Physical activity at school breaks was charted by asking the respondents what were their favourite spots for physical activities, how much of their break they usually spent in such activity and whether the construction/renovation of the sports facility in the schoolyard had increased their physical activities.

Physical activity at leisure time was charted by asking the respondents how often they took exercise for at least 20 minutes at a time, for how many hours a week they took strenuous exercise (becoming breathless and sweaty), whether they used the neighbourhood sports facility at leisure time and whether it had increased or varied their physical activities. Some questions covered the type of exercise taken and with whom. Reasons for using the neighbourhood sports facility at leisure time were charted as well as what prevented or hampered them from taking exercise.

Background variables included the municipality, whether the facility was in the schoolyard or not, distance between the respondent's home and sports facility, name of the school, the respondent's gender, class, grade received at physical education, whether did sports in a sports club, and how often.

Otantamenetelmä

Non-probability: Purposive

The surveys were carried out in schools which were in close proximity or nearest to the sports facilities projects selected to the study. The respondents filled in the questionnaires in class while one of the researchers was present. There were altogether 640 respondents.

Seven projects for neighbourhood sports facilities construction were selected to the study. The projects were completed during 2000-2005 and were financially supported by the Ministry of Education, province sports departments or Young Finland Association. The seven projects included were selected out of 37 similar projects in cooperation with province sports departments and an outside expert group. Selection aimed at providing variety in terms of facilities and project types (new construction or renovation of an existing facility), neighbourhood type (sparsely populated rural area, population centre in a rural area, town centre) and location (different parts of Finland). The selected projects were located in the municipalities of Nurmijärvi (Paimentie), Vantaa (Ester Koskelainen park), Heinola (Tähtiniemi), Kemiö (Amospuisto), Kajaani (Lohtaja), Iisalmi (the school Kauppis-Heikki) and Kaavi (Kortteinen).
