Knowing What We Don't Know: A Survey of School Nurse Information Needs

Longitudinal Study on Correlations Between Body Image, Physical Activity, and the Subjective Well-Being Among Adolescents Aged 14-16
This study examined the relationship between physical activity, body image, and subjective well-being among Swedish adolescents over time. Surveying 2308 students, with 137 providing longitudinal data, we conducted a multivariate logistic regression analysis. No significant correlations were found between physical activity (p = .268), body functioning (p = .567), or body appearance (p = .075) at age 14 and subjective well-being at age 16. Among control variables, sex (p = .038) and subjective well-being at age 14 (p = .013) showed significant correlations, while economic status did not (p = .39). The correlation between a ...
