- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoNivel de actividad física y sedentarismo en escolares en el contexto ecuatoriano. Revisión bibliográfica.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Torres Aguilar, Juleysi Yamileth; Aldas Arcos, Helder Guillermo; 0751120569Systematic physical activity is gradually increasing in the population; however, sedentarism is also rising significantly, with a notable emphasis on schoolchildren. This study aimed to conduct a literature review on the level of physical activity and sedentarism among schoolchildren in the Ecuadorian context. The research was framed within a non-experimental, cross-sectional design, employing a comprehensive literature review of scientific articles published in the past eight years relating to physical activity and sedentarism among Ecuadorian schoolchildren. The search covered five scientific databases in English and Spanish, applying relevance filters to identify the most pertinent articles. After selection, ten articles meeting the pre-established criteria for the literature review were considered. Findings regarding the level of physical activity and sedentarism reveal concerning results about the reality faced by Ecuadorian schoolchildren. Most studies analyzed in the Ecuadorian context report that the physical activity levels of schoolchildren were low. About sedentarism, the analysis of the findings reports high levels. Keywords: level of physical activity in schoolchildren, school physical activity, level of sedentarism in schoolchildren, school sedentarism.
