Abstract

The aim of the present work is to analyze the relations between Perceived Health (Perceived Physical Fitness and Health Perceived Status) and Exercise Practice in a sample of 283 students (146 boys and 137 girls) between 11 and 17 years old, using the Health Behavior School Children Questionnaire (Wold, 1989). The results show a positive relation between Perceived Health and Exercise Practice in total sample and in both boys and girls groups. Perceived Physical Fitness and Health Status are strong predictors of Exercise Practice in both total and boys groups. In girls group only Perceived Physical Fitness is positive related to exercise practice.
