dc.description.abstractObjective: This study aimed to evaluate physical activity and physical fitness in adolescents with cerebral palsy.Material and Methods: Forty individuals (20 cerebral palsy and 20 asymptomatic adolescents) were included in the study. Physical activity levels were measured by Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents; balance, agility, flexibility and arm movement speed, which are physical fitness parameters, were evaluated with Eurofit test battery; lower extremity muscle strength was evaluated with Muscle Force Evaluation Form; functional independence in the quality of life the individuals was evaluated with Functional Independence Measurement scales and cardiopulmonary endurance was assessed by 6-minute walking test.Results: In statistical analysis, there was no significant difference between two groups for the assessment of agility, 6-minute walk test, flexibility, arm movement speed, balance. There was a significant difference in physical activity and functional independence in favor of asymptomatic group.Conclusion: As a result of our study, it was determined that the levels of physical activity and physical fitness of the adolescents with cerebral palsy were lower. We believe that it is important to direct these individuals to sports and recreational activities, to increase their physical activity and fitness levels, and to reduce difference with their asymptomatic peers.
