Resumo
A qualidade de vida (QV) é hoje um tema muito debatido no meio acadêmico por ser um fator de extrema importância para a satisfação pessoal dos indivíduos. A QV é multifatorial e sendo assim, existem diversas abordagens metodológicas para se utilizar visando uma manutenção saudável dessa condição. Atualmente, há evidências em diversos estudos que relacionam a QV com a atividade física (AF) e com esportes em geral, sugerindo que podem ser estratégias eficazes para o aumento da mesma. Considerando a relevância desses fatos, o presente estudo teve como objetivo comparar o nível de QV e AF de atletas do sexo feminino de 15 aos 18 anos que praticam esporte de forma sistematizada com o de um grupo semelhante não atleta que não pratica nenhum esporte de forma sistematizada. Foi realizado uma coleta de dados de forma transversal, através de um questionário que mensurou o tempo semanal gasto com AF (IPAQ - versão curta) e um questionário que mensurou a QV (WHOQOL-bref). A média dos escores da QV geral das escolares não atletas foi de 60,86, classificado como “bom” e o nível de AF foi de 2,51, classificado como “médio-alto”. O escore médio da QV geral das escolares atletas foi de 64,06, classificado como “bom” e o nível de AF de 2,91, classificado como “alto”. A análise de Mann-Whitney demonstrou que não há diferença entre os estudantes não atletas e atletas para o quesito QV geral (U= 386; p=0.53). Sendo assim este estudo conclui que a prática esportiva sistematizada e níveis mais elevados de AF podem influenciar positivamente a QV de adolescentes do sexo feminino em áreas específicas, como o ambiente e as relações sociais mas não foi encontrado correlação positiva entre o nível de AF e a QV geral em ambos os grupos, sugerindo que a relação com a QV geral é mais complexa e pode ser influenciada por vários outros fatores.
Quality of life (QL) is today a hotly debated topic in academia as it is an extremely important factor for individuals' personal satisfaction. QL is multifactorial and therefore, there are several methodological approaches to be used to maintain this condition healthy. Currently, there is evidence in several studies that relate QL to physical activity (PA) and sports in general, suggesting that they can be effective strategies for increasing it. Considering the relevance of these facts, the present study aimed to compare the level of QL and PA of female athletes aged 15 to 18 who practice sport systematically with that of a similar non-athlete group who does not practice any sport in a systematic way. Cross-sectional data collection was carried out, using a questionnaire that measured the weekly time spent on PA (IPAQ - short version) and a questionnaire that measured QL (WHOQOL-bref). The average general QL score of non-athlete students was 60.86, classified as “good” and the PA level was 2.51, classified as “medium-high”. The average general QoL score of the student athletes was 64.06, classified as “good” and the PA level was 2.91, classified as “high”. The Mann-Whitney analysis demonstrated that there is no difference between non-athlete and athlete students in terms of general QL (U= 386; p=0.53). Therefore, this study concludes that systematic sports practice and higher levels of PA can positively influence the QL of female adolescents in specific areas, such as the environment and social relationships, but no positive correlation was found between the level of PA and general QL in both groups, suggesting that the relationship with general QL is more complex and can be influenced by several other factors.
