A associação entre nível de atividade física e a satisfação corporal de graduandos em educação física: revisão sistemática

Abstract

Knowing that the university period can be full of disturbances that may lead the student to harm his own health, such as exercising less and presenting distortions of his own body image, this study aimed to search the scientific literature, in the form of literature review, theDescrição: relationship between the level of physical activity and body image of Physical Education students, since this specific population tends to experience these issues in a more practical and daily basis, even professionally; we also searched for the main instruments used in these studies. A search strategy based on the Health Science Descriptors was applied in which 9 articles entered the study and the results pointed to a great disparity of outcomes, suggesting that this association is not so simple and direct; on the other hand, there was a greater prevalence of the use of the silhouette scale and the IPAQ, making these instruments converging points for future papers.
