“…In Iranian society, women's sexual beliefs are strongly determined by religious and traditional teaching. These communicate that a woman's sexual role may be seen as a preserver of the sexual relationship, and women may be expected to avoid expressing their sexual preferences in sexual relations and instead to satisfy their husbands on any sexual occasion (49). Furthermore, strict moral and rigid social conduct shape sexual beliefs, and restrained sexuality is considered as a value in Iranian women (50).…”

The strength of this study is in providing an examination of the role of culturally bound beliefs in predicting sexual dissatisfaction in women from different cultural backgrounds. Limitations include the lack of evaluation of psychological and interpersonal variables that may impact on women's sexual dissatisfaction. These findings suggest that there may be a role of culture in shaping beliefs, attitudes, and values toward sexuality; and provide evidence for the effect of cognitive-emotional variables in predicting women's sexual dissatisfaction.

“…It has been reported that the better socioeconomic status a canton has, the better development it has due to physical activity can be allied to the socioeconomic status of families (Patnode et al, 2010). Others (Maree, Hashemi, Hojjati, Nikravan, & Feizabadi, 2013), argue that social and family support joined with socioeconomic status play a fundamental role in physical activity participation, stimulating competitiveness in physical activities. Those athletes with low socioeconomic status frequently do not have the same access to facilities to practice physical activities compared to those who do have better incomes.…”

“…That could give less probabilities of receiving support (Patnode et al, 2010). Maree et al (2013), examined families' socioeconomic status and social support in athletes. The evidence found suggests a significant difference between the number of social factors and parents' support for physical activities in the North and South area of Tehran, Iran.…”

The aim of the study was to determine the association between economic and social indicators and their predictive value for cantonal sports performance in athletes who participated in the 35 th National Sport Games 2016 in San José, Costa Rica. Each canton was ranked according to the total medals obtained during the games and correlations were computed with the socioeconomic indicators human development index (HDI), human poverty index (HPI), life expectancy index (LEI), knowledge index (KI), material well-being index (MWI), HDI related to gender (GDI), and gender empowerment measure (GEM). Spearman Rho bivariate correlations and a multiple lineal regression were used to analyze data. Significant associations were found between the cantonal position in the Games and the HDI (r ρ = 0.307, p = 0.005), GDI (r ρ = 0.316, p = 0.004), GEM (r ρ = 0.326, p = 0.003), HPI (r ρ =-0.310, p = 0.005), MWI (r ρ = 0.335, p = 0.002); however, non-significant correlations were found for LEI (r ρ = 0.144, p = 0.201) and KI (r ρ = 0.335, p = 0.231). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that GDI (β = 0.268; p = 0.016) was the only predictive variable that entered in the model, explaining 7.2% of the variance in the total number of medals. In conclusion, although various socioeconomic indicators were associated with sport performance, only the HDI related to gender was the most important predictor. More attention should be given to factors that gender equality in the different cantons, as it has an association with sport success.

“…The presence of an inverse relationship between daily physical activities and weight gain was obvious; change in body compositions was accompanied by physical inactivity (36). Many physicians and health workers recommend that obese and overweight clients should do more physical activities, regardless of their age or gender (37)(38)(39). In spite of these benefits, both physical activity and weight gain have inverse effects on each other.…”

Background:One of the most pressing threats for children's health status is overweight and obesity. Previous literature indicates that increasing relative body mass index (RBMI) is accompanied by physical inactivity. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of daily physical activity and obesity among students grade 5th and 6th. Patients and Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study carried out to determine the distribution of daily physical activity according to gender and relative body mass index in overweight and obese children. We randomly selected 12 primary schools and studied their health profiles, including body mass index (BMI) and RBMI. We then selected those who were in the range of overweight and obesity based on the National Centre for Health Statistics (NCHS). Daily physical activities of the subjects were assessed by a self-administered recall tool and concurrently via interviewing the subjects' mothers. Results: There was a significant difference between the prevalence of obesity and being overweight between genders (P = 0.000). Overweight children, regardless of their gender, had higher daily physical activity than obese individuals and the ANOVA test showed a significant difference between means of daily metabolic equivalent of task (MET) for different genders and relative body mass index (P = 0.000). Conclusions: As increasing RBMI is concomitant with decreased daily physical activities in both genders, it is important to set plans to increase physical activities of obese children rather than overweight ones.
