The aims of this study were to describe patterns of active commuting to school (ACS) of
preschool children, and to analyse the relationship between ACS and family socio-economic factors.
A total of 2636 families of preschoolers (3-to-5 years old) were asked to complete a questionnaire
at home about the mode of commuting to school of their children and marital status, educational
level, and profession of both father and mother. Chi-square analyses were applied to compare
ACS between school grades and gender of the children. To analyse the association of ACS with
socio-economic factors, logistic regression analyses were performed. Almost 50% of participants
reported ACS of their offspring, with a higher rate in 3rd preprimary grade (5 years old) than in 1st
and 2nd preprimary grades (3- and 4-years old. All, p < 0.05). Those preschool children who had
parents with lower educational level and no managerial work had higher odds to ACS than those
who had parents with higher educational level and managerial work (all, p ≤ 0.001). Around half of
the Spanish preschool children included in this study commuted actively to school and families with
lower educational levels or worse employment situation were related to active commuting to school. [-]
