Abstract

Malaysia is the second-largest country for childhood obesity problems in Asian countries. This polemic indirectly caused children less active in physical activity. The purpose of this study was to identify the validity and reliability of factors affecting the constraints of physical activity in preschool. Factors that interfere with physical activity in preschool are due to teacher’s factor, preschool environment factor and physical activity equipment factor. A total of 75 preschool teachers were involved in this study. Therefore, to ensure that this questionnaire is reliable and valid, two phases of validity have been implemented. The first phase of the validation phase was carried out by providing a questionnaire to two experts, a language specialist, and an early childhood education expert. After obtaining expert reviews, all of the reviews were improved to further the second phase of the study. The second phase is the instrument reliability phase. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 23.0 application was used to obtain Cronbach’s Alpha scores. Findings show that all items have high reliability because the value of Cronbach Alpha’s questionnaire obtained α = 0.854.
