Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the psychological responses to intermittent activities of varying intensities and types among children with and without asthma. Methods: A total of 37 children and adolescents (51% male, aged 8–16 y, 54% nonwhite, and 54% without asthma) participated in this study. Participants completed 5 exercises in the same order: self-paced walking, resistance activities, dance video, gamified obstacle course, and step test. In-task mood was assessed using the Feeling Scale, in-task perceived exertion was assessed via the ratings of perceived exertion scale, and postactivity enjoyment was assessed using the Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale. Results: There was a significant main effect of exercise type on mood (P < .001), ratings of perceived exertion (P < .001), and enjoyment (P < .002). There was not a significant main effect of asthma status on mood, ratings of perceived exertion, or enjoyment (Ps > .05). Children with asthma reported significantly lower in-task mood during the step exercise (P < .037) and reported significantly lower postactivity enjoyment after the walk and obstacle course exercises (Ps < .03). Conclusions: Regardless of differences by asthma status for in-task mood during the obstacle course and for postactivity enjoyment during the walk and step exercises, both children with and without asthma reported high in-task mood and postactivity enjoyment during all 5 exercises.

目的：本研究的目的是检查患有和不患有哮喘的儿童对不同强度和类型的间歇性活动的心理反应。方法：共有 37 名儿童和青少年（51% 为男性，8-16 岁，54% 为非白人，54% 没有哮喘）参与了这项研究。参与者按相同顺序完成 5 个练习：自定步调的步行、阻力活动、舞蹈视频、游戏化障碍课程和步数测试。使用感觉量表评估任务中的情绪，通过感知用力量表的评级评估任务中的自觉用力，并使用身体活动享受量表评估活动后的享受。结果：运动类型对情绪的主效应显着（ P < .001)、自觉用力评分 ( P  < .001) 和享受 ( P  < .002)。哮喘状态对情绪、自觉劳累评分或愉悦感没有显着的主要影响 ( P s > .05)。患有哮喘的儿童报告说，在台阶运动期间，工作中的情绪明显较低 ( P  < .037)，并且报告说，在步行和障碍训练后，活动后的愉悦感也明显较低 ( P s < .03)。结论：不管哮喘状态在障碍训练期间的任务中情绪以及步行和踏步练习中的活动后享受的差异如何，患有和不患有哮喘的儿童在所有 5 种练习中都报告了高的任务中情绪和活动后享受。
