Abstract

Purpose: to determine health-related quality of life (HRQL) of children of secondary school age associated with health under the limited physical and social activity.

Materials and Methods. The study was carried out anonymously and remotely among 468 students (217 boys and 251 girls aged 10–16). We used a questionnaire developed by the Institute of health of Children and Adolescents of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine. Statistical data processing was carried out using the licensed SPSS Statistic v. 20.

Results. In general, physical well-being is not much higher than social and psychological. Girls are characterized by higher indices of HRQL on the physical scale, social and family functioning. The year of schooling and the age of the pupils has had a significant impact on physical, school and family functioning, and the teaching staff on the level of physical and school functioning, as well as mental well-being.

A strong direct correlation was established between indicators of physical and family functioning, general health and mental well-being, emotional and school functioning, as well as a direct correlation of average strength between physical and emotional and school functioning role, mental well-being and emotional and school role-playing (p <0.01).

The negative effect of physical activity was deepened by the forced increase in the time spent with gadgets and computers. Pupils, who usually lead a physically active lifestyle, were especially “affected”, and the HRQL in terms of general health, mental well-being and social functioning was almost directly proportional to the initial level of physical activity during the “pre-quarantine” period.

Conclusions. Health-related quality of life testified to its greatest disruption among creative and athletic students, because on the one hand they have an accumulated reserve of physical health, and on the other hand deviations from their “norm of life” can be a “trigger” of physical and psycho-emotional disorders.
