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 ...
Simultaneous validation of count-to-activity thresholds for five commonly used activity monitors in adolescent research: a step towards data harmonization
(Human Kinetics, 2021-11-16)
Background: Multiple activity monitors are utilized for the estimation of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity in youth. Due to differing methodological approaches, results are not comparable when developing ...
Seasonal changes in the physical activity levels of youth Gaelic football players
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-05-04)
This study quantified changes in physical activity (PA) levels attained by adolescents during
Gaelic football participation across two time points in a season and determined if these changes
affected the overall daily ...
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 ...
A standardised core outcome set for measurement and reporting sedentary behaviour interventional research: the CROSBI Consensus Study
(MDPI, 2022-08-05)
: Heterogeneity of descriptors and outcomes measured and reported in sedentary behaviour
(SB) research hinder the meta-analysis of data and accumulation of evidence. The objective of
the Core Research Outcomes for Sedentary ...
The influence of sitting, standing and stepping bouts on cardiometabolic health markers in older adults
(Human Kinetics, 2021-05-13)
Aside from total time spent in physical activity behaviors, how time is accumulated is important for health. This study examined associations between sitting, standing, and stepping bouts, with cardiometabolic health markers ...
Monitoring occupational sitting, standing, and stepping in office employees with the W@W-App and the MetaWearC Sensor: Validation Study.
(JMIR Publications, 2020-08)
Background: Replacing occupational sitting time with active tasks has several proposed health benefits for office employees.
Mobile phones and motion sensors can provide objective information in real time on occupational ...
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 ...
