IPAQ Japanese version, respectively.Multivariate logistic regression analysis conducted with presence dependent variable EFQ, IPAQ, fitness measurements independent variables.[Results] In male students, odds ratio for significantly lower higher "shifting" EFQ (OR = 0.17, 95%CI 0.04-0.86),whereas it "Self-Consciousness"(SC) 8.19, 95% CI 1.51-44.54).On other hand, in female "planning" item score repeated side jumps used variables.However, there no significant difference factors.[Conclusions] Our findings suggest related differ gender.More specifically, high SC tended be depressed.
