Sports motivation in Chinese college students: A systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

According to the 2014 National Physical Fitness and Health Monitor, people aged 9 to 22 exhibit limited physical activity, with a large proportion exercising for less than 1 h daily. China has focused on the study of college student sports motivation. This study comprehensively analyzed sports motivation studies and their relevant factors on Chinese college students.

Methods

The researchers searched CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), WANFANG DATA, Cqvip, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and Cochrane Library for sports motivation in Chinese college students. Articles from 2018 to 2023 were searched. The final analysis included 30 pieces of literatures that met the topic criteria.

Results

The results show that Chinese college students' sports motivation studies used large sample sizes and covered most of China. The main sports motivations are health, shape, and relaxation. Demography, psychology, social support, physical environment, and policy aspects affect sports motivation. Lack of use of qualitative and longitudinal studies.

Conclusion

In the future, scholars who research the sports motivation of Chinese college students need to pay more attention to social support, physical environment, and policy. Furthermore, scholars may try to use qualitative and longitudinal studies.

Project description:Background Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is used to evaluate the movement quality of an individual. However, the FMS composite score used to predict sports injuries is currently ambiguous. Further refinement of the FMS scoring method may be required to more accurately predict sports injuries. Objectives To investigate whether FMS scores could accurately predict sports injuries in college students with different levels of physical activity (PA) and sports performance (SP). Methods One hundred eighty-seven college students aged 18 to 22 were prospectively screened by the FMS test and grouped by the levels of PA and SP. Sports injury occurrences were monitored and collected 12 months later. Spearman's rank coefficients and binary logistic regression were used to identify the risk factors for sports injuries. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the total area under the curve (AUC) value were used to determine the optimal FMS cut-off point for sports injuries. Results The FMS composite score (sum of the seven FMS tests) exhibited a fair association with sports injuries (r = −0.434, P < 0.001). Those with an FMS cut-off point of 17.5 were more likely to acquire sports injuries. The AUC value of the ROC curves was 0.764 (95% CI: 0.618–0.909) in the low PA students, 0.781 (95% CI: 0.729–0.936) in the moderate PA students, and 0.721 (95% CI: 0.613–0.879) in the high PA students. Furthermore, students stratified by SP level showed an AUC value of 0.730 (95% CI 0.607–0.853) in the low SP group and 0.778 (95% CI 0.662–0.894) in the moderate SP group, while it declined to 0.705 (95% CI 0.511–0.800) in the high SP group. The FMS cut-off score successfully identified individuals who reported sports injuries at a higher rate in the low (PA, 84.62%; SP, 90.48%) and moderate (PA, 93.75%; SP, 77.78%) groups than in the high groups (PA, 65.52%; SP, 57.89%). Conclusions The FMS composite score could be used to predict sports injuries in college students with an FMS cut-off value of 17.5. Population stratification by the levels of PA and SP seems to influence the predictive accuracy of the FMS.

Project description:BackgroundInternational students have a lower utilization rate of the local medical service system for studying abroad, and it has been found that there may be multiple reasons behind this phenomenon. This study explores the usage of medical service systems by international students and the underlying logical factors through a study of the usage of National Health Service (NHS) of Chinese students in the UK.MethodsTo address the research questions, this study employed an online survey methodology that ran between 1st May and August 20, 2019 facing the Chinese students in the UK. A total of 1,050 questionnaires were distributed and 1,001 questionnaires were recovered, of which 977 contained valid responses (questionnaire response rate was 95.3 % and validity rate was 97.6 %). Before the questionnaire was designed and after it was issued, two focus group interviews were conducted to provide reliable and detailed information to inform the questionnaire design and to supplement the questionnaire survey data with more profound psychological qualitative data. The two focus groups consisted of 10 and 12 Chinese students studying in the UK and each lasted more than 3 h.ResultsThe survey data showed that the medical services utilization rate of Chinese students in the UK is relatively low compared to UK residents and domestic Chinese students. Their decisions and behaviours around medical services usage in the UK are not significantly related to age, gender, and monthly income, but are instead related to their current education status, types of disease suffered, and information acquisition about the UK medical services before coming to the UK. When getting sick, in addition to seeking help from official medical services, Chinese students studying in the UK tend to self-diagnose and self-medicate; seeking help from social networks based on friendship and domestic relatives are also alternatives to accessing medical services.ConclusionCombining the theories of 'sick role' and 'illness experience', the decisions and behaviours related to medical services usage by Chinese students in the UK are significantly influenced by their understanding of medical services, which is socially and culturally learned in China. Understanding the perspective of the 'sick role' and the 'illness experience' of Chinese students may help to better think about how improvements can be made to their utilization rate of medical services and their health status during their studies in the UK. This study not only provides us with specific information and understanding on the usage of medical services for Chinese students in the UK, but the research results may also provide a reference for other similar research on the health and medical service use of other international students studying in the cross-cultural contexts.
