Tracking of physical activity and sedentary behaviour from adolescence to young adulthood: A systematic literature review.
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
Purpose
The transition from adolescence to young adulthood is categorized by substantial changes in one's activity behaviors, which may have important implications for health. To date, no reviews have systematically ...
Activity profiles and the associations with weight status in population studies of young children: are there gender differences?
(Human Kinetics, 2017-02)
Purpose:
Profiling activity behaviors in young children is important to understand changes in weight status over time. The purpose of this study is to identify activity profiles from self- and parental-reported Physical ...
The cross-sectional associations between objectively measured sedentary time and cardiometabolic health markers in adults – a systematic review with meta-analysis component.
(Wiley, 2018)
Sedentary time is viewed as an independent risk factor for adverse cardiometabolic health (CMH). No systematic review and meta-analysis on the cross-sectional asso-ciations between objectively measured sedentary time and ...
activPAL™ determined sedentary behaviour, physical activity and academic achievement in college students.
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-03)
The aim of this study was to examine relationships between activPALTM-determined sedentary behavior (SB) and physical activity (PA) with academic achievement. A total of 120 undergraduates (N=57 female; 20.6 ± 2.3 years) ...
Simultaneous validation of five activity monitors for use in adult populations.
(Wiley, 2017-12)
Numerous cut-points
exist to measure physical activity by accelerometry. The ability to
compare accelerometer findings from different devices from different locations may be
advantageous to researchers. This study aimed ...
Minimum wear duration for the activPAL™ Professional Activity Monitor in Adolescent Females.
(Human Kinetics, 2017)
Objectives: This study aims to determine the minimum number of days of monitoring required to reliably predict sitting/lying time, standing time, light intensity physical activity (LIPA), moderate-to-vigorous intensity ...
Validation study of the Spanish version of the Last-7-d Sedentary Time Questionnaire (SITQ- 7d-Sp) in young adults.
(Public Library of Science, 2019-05-29)
There are few valid instruments to assess domain-specific sedentary behaviours (SB)
among Spanish-speaking populations. This study validated the original English version of
the last 7 days SB questionnaire (SIT-Q-7d) ...
A systematic literature review of reviews on techniques for physical activity measurement in adults: a DEDIPAC study.
(BioMed Central, 2018)
The links between increased participation in Physical Activity (PA) and improvements in health are well established. As this body of evidence has grown, so too has the search for measures of PA with high levels of ...
Use of compositional analyis to show estimated changes in cardiometabolic health by reallocating time to light intensity physical activity in older adults.
(Springer, 2019-07-26)
All physical activity (PA) behaviours undertaken over the day, including sleep, sedentary time, standing time, light-intensity PA (LIPA) and moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) have the potential to influence cardiometabolic ...
