A study conducted by researchers from Stanford University in the United States reveals that Indonesians walk an average of 3,513 steps daily. This number is way below the global average of 5,000 steps per day, making Indonesians the world's laziest people when it comes to walking.
由美国斯坦福大学的研究人员开展的一项研究显示,印度尼西亚人平均每天只走3513步,这个数据远低于全球平均水平的5000步,使得他们成为了世界上最懒的人。
Published in science journal Nature, the report claims that Hong Kong is the world's most active region, as the population walks an average of 6,880 steps daily, followed by China (6,180) and Ukraine (6,107).
发布在《自然》杂志上的这项研究指出,世界上最活跃的地区是中国香港,该地区的人平均每天走6880步,紧随其后的是中国大陆(6180步)和乌克兰(6107步)。
The data was gathered with Argus and the Azumi tracking application, which provided researchers with daily steps from 717,627 people in 111 countries around the world.
这一数据是由Argus和Azumi跟踪应用程序收集的,它为研究人员提供了来自全球111个国家的717627人的日常步数。
In addition to the world's most active and inactive countries, the research also found that in countries with fewer cases of obesity1, the population walked a similar amount of steps daily.
除了世界上最活跃的和不活跃的国家之外,这份报告还发现,在肥胖率较低的国家,人们每天走路的步数也是差不多的。
Meanwhile, countries with high activity inequality, in which there is a large gap between the active and sedentary population, have the higher number of obesity cases.
与此同时,在运动量不均等程度比较高的国家,活动者和久坐人群之间有很大的差距,那里的肥胖人群更多。
"For instance, Sweden has one of the smallest gaps between activity rich and activity poor, and the smallest disparity between male and female steps. It also has one of the lowest rates of obesity," said Tim Althoff, one of the researchers and a doctoral candidate in computer science.
计算机科学专业的一位博士研究生、也是此报告研究员之一的蒂姆·阿尔特霍夫表示:“以瑞典为例,该国的最活跃人群和最不爱运动人群之间的差距最小,男性和女性之间的步数差距也最小,它也是全球肥胖率最低的国家之一。”
