| Abstract | espanolObjetivo Conocer la influencia de la percepcion del entorno en los habitos de actividad fisica de escolares de 9 a 11 anos de edad de la provincia de Cuenca, Espana. Metodos Estudio cualitativo disenado y analizado desde una perspectiva fenomenologica. Se analizaron los dibujos individuales de 32 escolares de 4° y 5° curso de Educacion Primaria sobre el entorno y los lugares que frecuentaban. Estos mismos escolares participaron en siete grupos focales para obtener informacion sobre la influencia de la percepcion del entorno en sus habitos de actividad fisica. Resultados Tras el analisis emergieron cuatro categorias: residencia, configuracion urbana, desplazamientos y sentido de pertenencia/adhesion al barrio. Los escolares percibian que residir en urbanizaciones cerradas o en ambitos rurales facilita la practica de actividad fisica, mientras que residir en zonas poco accesibles, la sensacion de inseguridad por el trafico, desplazarse en coche y la sensacion de no pertenencia al barrio fueron percibidos como barreras para ser activos. Conclusiones La percepcion del entorno influye en los habitos de actividad fisica de los escolares de la provincia de Cuenca. Para conseguir cambios en la actividad fisica de los escolares son necesarias estrategias especificas que tengan en cuenta el ambiente urbano donde estos viven.
