Zusammenfassung

Este estudo de corte transversal objetivou investigar a qualidade de vida (QV) relacionada à prática de atividade física de surfistas. A amostragem por conveniência foi de 202 surfistas com média de idade de 25,9±7,5 anos. Optou-se por um questionário autoaplicável. A maioria dos surfistas são solteiros (82%), com ensino médio completo (64%), do estrato econômico B (61%), realizam atividade física regularmente e são considerados muito ativos (83,2%). A QV foi considerada de boa a muito boa, variando de 59,8% a 77%. O domínio social obteve maior escore e o físico o menor. Houve uma fraca associação entre os domínios da QV e os componentes da atividade física (r=-0,105 - r=0,114) não havendo significância, ou seja, a QV, no presente estudo, não foi influenciada pela prática de atividade física. Provavelmente, outros hábitos dos surfistas investigados contribuem de forma mais significativa para o fenômeno QV pesquisado. The present study aimed at investigating the quality of life (QL) of surfers in regards to their engagement with regular physical activity. The convenience sample was composed of 202 surfers, with mean age of 25,9±7,5 years. The survey method chosen for this research was a self-completion questionnaire. The majority of surfers from our sample are single (82%), have completed secondary school (64%), are economically situated in „B‟ class (61%), are engaged in physical activities regularly and are considered very physically active (83.2%). The QL was considered good to very good, varying from 59.8% to 77%. The social domain received the highest score and the physical the lowest. There was a weak association between the QL domains and the physical activity components (r=-0,105 - r=0,114), with no significance found between the two. This result indicated that the QL, in the present study, was not influenced by the practice of physical activities. Possibly, for the sampled surfers, other habits contribute more significantly to their QL.
