METHODS: Survey by means of personal interview. The sample consisted of 8,594 participants living in Spain between 15 and 97 years of age. Sampling error was ± 1.07%. RESULTS: Of the people who reported having good or excellent physical fitness, there was a proportionally greater prevalence of males, people aged 15 to 34, people with university studies and people from an upper or very upper social class (P < 0.001). It was also inferred that there was a greater possibility of perceiving deficient or very bad physical fitness in cohorts who felt that they should gain a bit of weight (OR = 2.87), lose a bit of weight (OR = 2.31) or lose a lot of weight (OR = 8.78). CONCLUSION: Perception of physical fitness is associated with perception of body weight, independently of people's sociodemographic characteristics. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: Spanish refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
