  • Correlates of changes in children's independent mobility during the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessSudipta Roy, Nimesh B Patel et al.ARTICLEJournal of Transport Geography2026

    Children's independent mobility (CIM) is linked to higher physical activity in cross-sectional research, but longitudinal assessments of correlates of changes in CIM are lacking. We investigated social-ecological correlates of changes in CIM during the COVID-19 pandemic and whether they differ by gender. Every six months between December 2020 and 2021, we surveyed Canadian parents of 7- to 12-year-olds ( n = 2291) to assess mobility licenses (chi…

  • The Cross‐Sectional and Longitudinal Associations Between Social Media and Mental Health Among a Large Sample of Adolescents, Inclusive of Transgender/Gender‐Diverse Adolescents

    Open AccessMadelyn Curle, Susan Hunter et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2026

    INTRODUCTION: The objectives of this study were to examine: (1) the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between social media (SM) time and mental health outcomes among a large sample of Canadian adolescents (ages 12-18) and (2) if associations are moderated by gender. METHODS: Data from the Cannabis, Obesity, Mental health, Physical activity, Alcohol, Smoking, and Sedentary behaviour (COMPASS) study were used to conduct two cross-sectio…

  • Prevalence and correlates of active transportation to campus among Canadian post-secondary students

    Open AccessLex Derkach, Meijun Hou et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sports and Active…2026Referências: 2

    Introduction Active transportation to campus may be an important source of physical activity while contributing to broader benefits to the environment. Currently, little is known about the transportation behaviour of post-secondary students. The aims of the current study were (a) to examine the prevalence of active transportation to campus in a national sample of post-secondary students, and (b) to examine the sociodemographic, contextual and lif…

  • What is an athlete's psychological well-being? Constructing concepts with Olympic and Paralympic athletes

    Lisa R Trainor, Andrea Bundon et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research in Sport and…2025

    Although psychological well-being (PWB) in athletes is receiving increased scrutiny, there is some confusion about what constitutes PWB in elite sport. Psychological well-being (eudaimonia) is associated with purpose, growth, and fulfilling one’s potentials (Aristotle, 4c BCE, 1985); however, there are limitations in the conceptual clarity of PWB, and in the context of elite sport global frameworks of PWB have been used to study context-specific …

  • Stranger danger or good Samaritan? A cross-sectional study examining correlates of tolerance of risk in outdoor play among Canadian parents

    Open AccessG Faulkner, Matthew Fagan et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Tailored interventions that reframe perceptions of risk for parents are needed. Such interventions could reframe concerns about stranger danger which persist despite occurrences of stranger abduction being extremely rare. Interventions could also be targeted to immigrant families and those with fewer children as they appear to be more averse to risk. A complementary focus on examining how cultural background influences risk perceptions is needed …

  • Development of a 24-hour movement index

    Open AccessJian Zhan, Karim M Khan et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sports and Active…2025Referências: 3

    Background The Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth were introduced in 2016. They offer recommendations on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, light physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep in a typical 24-hour period to achieve optimal health outcomes. However, a lack of awareness and knowledge about the guidelines among children and parents is a concerning public health issue and may contribute to the low gui…

  • Meeting 24-hour movement guidelines and the relationship with active commuting to school in Spanish urban areas

    Open AccessEvelyn Martín-Moraleda, Iván Pinilla-Quintana et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Sports and Active…2025Referências: 1

    Introduction New guidelines from Canada indicate that the integration of all movement behaviours [physical activity (PA), screen time (ST) and sleep time (SLT)] is important for health across the day. Active commuting to school (ACS) provides an opportunity to increase PA levels daily while replacing sedentary time passively commuting. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of ACS, and if meeting the different guidelines included in t…

  • Income inequality and adherence to 24-hour movement guideline recommendations among adolescents

    Susan Hunter, Zack Perala et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2025Citada por: 1Referências: 29

    BACKGROUND: There is a paucity of literature regarding income inequality and adolescent movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviours, sleep). This study examined whether income inequality was associated with meeting Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (24HMG) recommendations among adolescents over time. METHODS: Longitudinal data from adolescents (n=9299) in the Cannabis, Obesity, Mental health, Physical activity, Sedentary behav…

  • Elusive boundaries

    Open AccessLori Baugh Littlejohns, Drona Rasali et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2024

    The cost of physical inactivity is alarming, and calls for whole-of-system approaches to population physical activity promotion (PPAP) are increasing. One innovative approach to PPAP is to use a framework of interdependent attributes and associated dimensions of effective systems for chronic disease prevention. Describing system boundaries can be an elusive task, and this article reports on using an attribute framework as a first step in describi…

  • “Losing access to outdoor spaces was the biggest challenge for children to be healthy”

    Open AccessMaggie Locke, Becky Feicht et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024

    Introduction: Health-focused communities can promote physical activity for children by providing them with safe and supportive environments to move. Across the COVID-19 pandemic many community spaces and services were closed due to public health restrictions. During the pandemic, Atlantic Canada uniquely implemented an agreement between four provinces to restrict travel and reduce the spread of the virus. The "Atlantic bubble" led to fewer cases …

  • Barriers and facilitators to the dissemination of national movement behavior guidelines among health-promoting organizations

    Open AccessKaitlyn D Kauffeldt, Isaac Kelman McFadyen et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2024

    Background: National movement behavior guidelines offer evidence-informed recommendations for how to obtain health benefits. However, their impact on practice and policy has been limited. Factors at multiple levels determine the effective mobilization of knowledge into practice. Historically, little attention has been paid to assessing the social, organizational, and economic factors that influence the uptake of national movement behavior guideli…

  • Psychological needs and exercise behaviour

    Colin M Wierts, G Faulkner et al.ARTICLEPsychology & Health2024

    OBJECTIVE: Psychological need satisfaction, from a self-determination theory (SDT) perspective, has been applied extensively to understand predictors of exercise behaviour. Dweck proposed a psychological needs framework that includes basic needs (optimal predictability, competence, acceptance), compound needs derived from combinations of basic needs (self-esteem/status, trust, control), and a superordinate compound need for self-coherence that in…

  • Inequitable Changes in School Connectedness During the Ongoing Covid ‐19 Pandemic in a Cohort of Canadian Adolescents

    Open AccessKaren A Patte, Mahmood Reza Gohari et al.ARTICLEJournal of School Health2024

    BACKGROUND: We examined whether subgroups of adolescents experienced disparate changes in school connectedness-a robust predictor of multiple health outcomes-from before the COVID-19 pandemic to the first full school year following pandemic onset. METHODS: We used 2 waves of prospective survey data from 7178 students attending 41 Canadian secondary schools that participated during the 2019-2020 (T1; pre-COVID-19 onset) and 2020-2021 (T2; ongoing …

  • Development and validation of the Safe (Socially Ascribed intersectional identities For Equity) questionnaire

    Open AccessEun‐young Lee, Eun-Young Lee et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2024

    Traditional questionnaires do not capture the complexity of how people are viewed by others and grouped into categories on the basis of what is inferred (or not) about them. This is critical in applying an intersectionality framework in research because people are negatively impacted because of "who they are" but also based on "how others see them." The purpose of this project was to develop and validate a questionnaire, grounded in intersectiona…

  • Inequities in sleep duration and quality among adolescents in Canada

    Open AccessJessica Mitchell, Megan J Magier et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    Differences in sleep duration and quality were most profound among adolescents from the lowest and highest SES. Racial disparities were more evident on weekdays. Compensatory weekend sleep appears more pronounced in females than males. Addressing sleep inequities is critical, as a robust predictor of multiple health outcomes

  • Implementing active play standards

    Open AccessE Jean Buckler, Louise C Mâsse et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2023

    With an increasing number of children attending regular early childhood education and care (ECEC), this setting presents an opportunity to develop physical activity habits and movement skills of children. These behaviours play an important role in the development and well-being of children. In 2017, an Active Play Standard was introduced in British Columbia, Canada, to mandate practices related to physical activity, screen time and movement skill…

  • The 2022 ParticipAction Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth

    Open AccessNicholas Kuzik, Christine Cameron et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Introduction The ParticipACTION Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth is the most comprehensive national assessment of physical activity and related behaviors, characteristics, and opportunities for children and youth. The 2022 Report Card assigned grades based on data gathered during the COVID-19 pandemic to reflect this extraordinary time-period in Canada. Further, while not graded, efforts were made to summarize key findings …

  • Sleep duration change among adolescents in Canada

    Open AccessMarkus J Duncan, Jessica Mitchell et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2023

    Increases in sleep duration may be one of the few benefits to adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic but were not equally distributed across sub-populations. Efforts to promote better sleep adherence may need to account for sex/gender differences, especially in less urbanized areas and certain racial/ethnic groups

  • Factors associated with physical activity policy and practice implementation in British Columbia’s childcare settings

    Open AccessClaire N Tugault-Lafleur, Patti-Jean Naylor et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    A hierarchy of theoretically defined factors influenced childcare providers' implementation of the AP Standards in BC. Future research should test the feasibility of modifying these factors to improve the implementation of PA policy and practice interventions in this setting

  • Physical Literacy for Communities (PL4C)

    Open AccessYiling Tang, Beatrix Algurén et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    Although most of our sample was physically active and showed higher adherence to 24-H movement guidelines than comparable population data, the motor competence and self-perceived PL of our sample were similar to those of previous studies. PL has an independent association with children's internalizing problems and total difficulties. Ongoing assessment will investigate the relationships between PL and children's mental health from a longitudinal …
