Estado de ánimo y calidad de vida en mujeres adultas practicantes de pádel

The purpose of this study is to analyze the level of quality of life and to determine the profile of mood state in adult padel women and to compare it with sedentary women. The sample were 60 women from Extremadura (average age = 40,43 ± 5,73 years), divided into two groups, distinguishing between sportswomen who practice paddle and sedentary women. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to clasify the participants in the groups (athletes and sedentary). The questionnaire of the Mood Profile and a quality of life questionnaire (EuroQol-5D) were applied. The results of this work showed higher levels in every dimension of mood state for the group of sportswomen. However, it does not appear that practicing padel influence on the dimensions of quality of life, outside of the measure in the analog visual scale, which is higher in the women padel players.
