研究目的在探討台北市立醫院臨床護理人員的身體活動量，以及個人背景因素和社會心理因素對身體活動量的影響。研究對象為隨機抽樣之400位台北市立醫院之臨床護理人員，使用三日身體活動記錄表及結構式問卷進行調查。結果顯示：臨床護理人員上班日的身體活動能量消耗比不上班日之身體活動能量消耗為高，而非上班日之身體活動量卻不足。需輪三班工作者、專科以下學歷者、已婚者之身體活動量較高。影響臨床護理人員身體活動量之運動社會心理因素，以運動自我效能最為顯著，當遇到工作繁重、健康狀況不佳、懶得動、時問不夠等情境，運動把握程度較低。非上班日之中等費力以上身體活動量受到自覺運動障礙因素之影響較大，自覺運動障礙愈大時，其運動方面之身體活動量愈少。自覺運動障礙最大因素為懶得動和時問不夠。

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical activity profiles of clinical nurses in Taipei municipal hospitals. This study also explored the factors that influence physical activity, including personal background and social psychological factors. A total of 400 Taipei municipal hospital clinical nurses were selected using a randomized procedure to participate in a 3-day physical activity record assignment and fill in a structured questionnaire. Study results indicate that energy expenditures for clinical nurses on working days are higher than that on non-working days. Non-working days of clinical nurses are characterized by a lack of physical activity. Nurses who were required to take turns working in three shift rotation cycles, those with educations at the junior college level or below, and those who were married tended to expend more energy on physical activity. Social psychological factors affecting the physical activities of clinical nurses include mainly exercise self-efficacy. Heavy work loading, poor health conditions, laziness, and lack of time tended to lower exercise self-efficacy. On non-working days, perceived barriers to exercise are the main issue area affecting moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Nurses with greater perceived barriers to exercise expend less energy on physical activity. The main influencing factors for perceived barriers to exercise include laziness and lack of time.
