身體活動參與可以提升身體知覺及身體自我概念，在身體活動參與時對自己產生信心，便會持續參與身體活動，並為身體活動所吸引。研究以台中縣 277 名國中學生（平均年齡14.42 ± 0.40歲）為研究參與者，探討青少年身體活動參與和身體自我概念的關聯及兩者間之差異情形。使用「身體活動參與量表」及「身體自我概念量表」為研究工具。所得資料以描述性統計、皮爾遜積差相關及獨立樣本t考驗等統計方法進行分析，發現：（一）身體活動參與程度有顯著的性別差異，男性相較於女性有較高的身體活動參與程度。（二）身體自我概念、外表/狀況的身體自我概念及體能的身體自我概念，有顯著的性別差異存在，男性擁有比女性高的身體自我概念。（三）身體活動參與和身體自我概念、外表/狀況的身體自我概念及體能的身體自我概念的相關性呈顯著正向關係。（四）不同身體活動參與程度青少年的身體自我概念、外表/狀況身體自我概念及體能身體自我概念，有顯著的性別差異存在，高身體活動參與者有較高的身體自我概念。根據結果，本研究的結論是（一）身體活動參與程度有性別差異。（二）身體自我概念有性別差異。（三）身體活動參與程度和身體自我概念有正向關聯性。（四）不同身體活動參與程度青少年的身體自我概念有差異。
