The feasibility of passively tracking children's TV viewing and mobile device use in naturalistic settings
Research on children's technology and digital media (TDM) is hampered by a lack of robust approaches for assessing TDM use. This study assessed the feasibility of passively measuring children's TV screens and mobile devices (TDM) in a naturalistic setting. In the three-day feasibility study, FLASH-TV was set up on one to two TVs the child (5-12 year olds) typically used in the home (n=20). Children's mobile device use was assessed with either the…

Street environments and crime around low-income and minority schools
Household Food Insufficiency and Chronic Pain among Children in the US
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of pediatric chronic pain by household food sufficiency status and examine whether food insufficiency would be associated with greater risk for chronic pain. We analyzed data from the 2019-2020 National Survey of Children's Health of 48,410 children (6-17 years) in the United States. Across the sample, 26.1% (95% CI: 25.2-27.0) experienced mild food insufficiency and 5.1% (95% CI: 4.6-5.7) moderate/sev…
Feasibility and Validity of Using Item Response Theory to Assess Cumulative Social Risk
Participation and engagement of a rural community in Ciclovía
The progression from a research intervention to a community-adopted program encompasses multiple steps that involve bidirectional learning and partnership with the community. Lessons learned from this study are integrated into a disseminatable ciclovía planning guide
Model of goal directed behavior for limiting Latino preschoolers’ television viewing

Perspectives of Caregivers on the Effects of Migration on the Nutrition, Health and Physical Activity of their Young Children
Psychosocial Factors of Diet and Physical Activity among Rural, Hispanic Children
Attitudinal, Behavioral, and Environmental Correlates of Child and Parent Self-Efficacy in Walking to School
As a critical social cognitive construct, self-efficacy plays a determinant role in children's walking to school (WTS). However, little is known about factors that are underlying children's and parents' self-efficacy in WTS. The purpose of this study is to examine behavioral, attitudinal, and environmental correlates of child self-efficacy and parent self-efficacy in WTS, and to assess differences in the correlates of child versus parent self-eff…
Effects of a school-based intervention on active commuting to school and health-related fitness
A school-based intervention focused on increasing active commuting to school was associated with increases in rates of cycling to school among boys, but not for walking to school or health-related fitness. However, the school-based intervention avoided increases in rates of passive commuting in the experimental group, which were significantly increased in girls of the control group
Hot topics, urgent priorities, and ensuring success for racial/ethnic minority young investigators in academic pediatrics
The six compelling questions posed by the 10 young investigators-along with the responses of the senior conference leadership-provide a unique resource and "survival guide" for ensuring the academic success and optimal career development of young investigators in academic pediatrics from diverse backgrounds. A rich conversation ensued on the topics addressed, consisting of negotiating for protected research time, career trajectories as academic i…
Texting to Increase Adolescent Physical Activity
An intervention consisting of pedometers, theory-informed texts, and goal prompts, is a feasible and acceptable method for promoting physical activity to adolescents
A Child-Centered Scale of Informal Social Control for Latino Parents of Preschool-Age Children
Perceived neighborhood informal social control may determine whether parents allow their young children to be physically active in the neighborhood. We developed and validated a scale of neighborhood child-centered informal social control appropriate for Latino parents of preschool-age children. The scale was administered to 240 Latino parents, mainly mothers, recruited from neighborhoods cross-stratified by objectively measured crime and traffic…
Environmental and cultural correlates of physical activity parenting practices among Latino parents with preschool-aged children
Interventions promoting PA among Latino preschoolers may need to address the social-ecological context in which families live to effectively promote PA parenting, especially parents' perceptions of neighborhoods
Food Insecurity, CD4 Counts, and Incomplete Viral Suppression Among HIV+ Patients from Texas Children’s Hospital
Characterizing lunch meals served and consumed by pre-school children in Head Start
Objective To examine the variability of food portions served and consumed by African-American and Hispanic-American pre-school children attending Head Start. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Food consumption by pre-schoolers ( n 796) enrolled in sixteen Head Start centres in Houston, Texas (51 % boys, 42 % African-American, mean age 4 years) were assessed during 3 d of lunch meals using digital photography. Descriptive statistics and multilevel re…

Impact of a pilot walking school bus intervention on children's pedestrian safety behaviors
Walking school buses (WSB) increased children's physical activity, but impact on pedestrian safety behaviors (PSB) is unknown. We tested the feasibility of a protocol evaluating changes to PSB during a WSB program. Outcomes were school-level street crossing PSB prior to (Time 1) and during weeks 4-5 (Time 2) of the WSB. The protocol collected 1252 observations at Time 1 and 2548 at Time 2. Mixed model analyses yielded: intervention schoolchildren…
Validity of instruments to assess students' travel and pedestrian safety
These validated instruments can be used to assess SRTS programs. The pedestrian safety behavior checklist may benefit from further formative work
