Scale development for perceived school climate for girls' physical activity.
American journal of health behavior 2005;
29(
3):.
OBJECTIVES: To test an original scale assessing perceived school climate for girls' physical activity in middle school girls. METHODS: Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM). RESULTS: CFA retained 5 of 14 original items. A model with 2 correlated factors, perceptions about teachers' and boys' behaviors, respectively, fit the data well in both sixth and eighth graders. SEM detected a positive, significant direct association of the teacher factor, but not the boy factor, with girls' self-reported physical activity. CONCLUSIONS: School climate for girls' physical activity is a measurable construct, and preliminary evidence suggests a relationship with physical activity.
