Özet
The implementation of COVID-19 restrictions impacted the day-to-day lives of individuals and their ability to participate in regular community activities; this has led to a decrease in the physical activity of people of all ages, but particularly of children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to investigate physical activity (PA) and mood behaviours in children before and during COVID-19 in Iran. In this study, self-rating questionnaires covering former and current PA patterns and mood were used to collect data on 2047 children. The data collected show the comparisons between levels of PA before and during COVID-19; the duration and intensity of PA in this period varied significantly in both girls and boys. The mood between genders during COVID-19 showed that there was no significant difference. Finally, it should be mentioned that the type of PA plays an important role in the activity of people in these conditions.
