Aim

The aim of the present study was to investigate the cross-sectional association between physical activity levels with depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and positive mental well-being in a sample of the UK public social distancing owing to COVID-19.

Method

This paper presents pre-planned interim analyses of data from a cross-sectional epidemiological study. Levels of physical activity during COVID-I9 social distancing were self-reported. Mental health was measured using the Beck Anxiety and Depression Inventory. Mental wellbeing was measured using The Short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale. Participants also reported on sociodemographic and clinical data. The association between physical activity and mental health was studied using regression models.

Results

902 adults were included in this study (63.8% of women and 50.1% of people aged 35–64 years). After adjusting for covariates, there was a negative association between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per day in hours and poor mental health (OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.80–0.97). Similar findings were obtained for moderate-to-severe anxiety symptoms, moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms and poor mental wellbeing.

Conclusions

In the present sample of UK adults social distancing owing to COVID-19 those who were physically active have better overall mental health. Owing, to the cross-sectional design of the present study the direction of the association cannot be inferred.

英国公众样本中身体活动与心理健康之间的关系：实施 COVID-19 社会疏远措施期间的横断面研究。

目标

本研究的目的是调查由于 COVID-19 而导致的英国公共社交距离样本中身体活动水平与抑郁症状、焦虑症状和积极心理健康之间的横断面关联。

方法

本文介绍了对横断面流行病学研究数据的预先计划的中期分析。自我报告了 COVID-I9 社交距离期间的身体活动水平。使用贝克焦虑和抑郁量表测量心理健康。使用 The Short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale 测量心理健康。参与者还报告了社会人口学和临床数据。使用回归模型研究了身体活动与心理健康之间的关联。

结果

这项研究包括 902 名成年人（63.8% 的女性和 50.1% 的 35-64 岁人群）。在调整协变量后，以小时为单位的中度至剧烈体力活动与不良心理健康之间存在负相关（OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.80-0.97）。对于中度至重度焦虑症状、中度至重度抑郁症状和心理健康状况不佳，也获得了类似的发现。
