Sleep Duration and Sun Exposure in Portuguese Children
Neighborhood Social Fragmentation and Excessive Body Weight Among Children—A View From a Portuguese Inner City
This cross‐sectional study examined the association between neighborhood social fragmentation and excessive body weight in childhood. The sample included 832 children aged 3–10 years living in the municipality of Porto, Portugal. Excessive body weight was classified using International Obesity Task Force sex‐ and age‐specific cut‐offs. Neighborhood social fragmentation was assessed using a composite index derived from 2021 Portuguese Census data …
Device-specific and contextual patterns of screen use
While most research emphasizes the negative impact of screen time duration on child outcomes, fewer studies examine how content, context, and device-specific patterns influence mental health in early childhood. This study explored how characteristics of household screen media use, including dominant content type, device, co-viewing frequency, and age at first exposure, relate to socio-emotional outcomes in children aged 2–6 years. Cross‐sectional…

Sleep habits, sede…
Neighborhood Socioeconomic Deprivation and Gender Disparities in Children with Excessive Body Weight in a Southern European Municipality
The findings indicate that neighborhood SE deprivation substantially increases the risk of excessive body weight, particularly among girls. Therefore, prevention and intervention strategies aimed at addressing excessive body weight gain should specifically target the populations and areas that are at a higher risk
Worldwide trends in underweight and obesity from 1990 to 2022
BACKGROUND: Underweight and obesity are associated with adverse health outcomes throughout the life course.

Sex‐specific differences in somatic investment and strategies of physical activity among Portuguese schoolchildren
OBJECTIVES: Physical activity (PA) is required for healthy growth, development, and maturation and plays an important role in the prevention of overweight and obesity in childhood and adolescence. Sex-differences in PA levels are well documented, with boys spending more time in PA, especially in moderate-to-vigorous activities. Following the Life History Theory, our aim is to study if PA affects the fat tissues increases during childhood and juve…
Screen media use by Portuguese children in 2009 and 2016

Os Últimos Pioneiros
Na Jugoslávia, até ao seu desmembramento, todas as crianças eram iniciadas no movimento pioneiro. Celebravam a ideologia da Federação de "Fraternidade e Unidade". Mas nos anos 90 novos valores entraram na então independente República da Eslovénia. Como é que a última geração de pioneiros sentiu esta transição
A concepção dos professores e educadores de educação infantil sobre o saber de Morin
Tendo em vista que, devido à divisão do ensino em disciplinas, cada vez mais se fragmenta a visão do ser humano sobre si, assim, acredita-se que o ensino da condição humana deveria estar presente em todos os níveis de ensino, proporcionando aos indivíduos uma visão mais abrangente de si e do outro. Sob esse enfoque, este estudo pretende abordar e compreender as concepções que os professores e educadores de um Centro Municipal de Educação Infantil…

Environmental and Socio-demographic Factors Associated with 6–10-Year-Old Children’s School Travel in Urban and Non-urban Settings
Rising rural body-mass index is the main driver of the global obesity epidemic in adults
Body-mass index (BMI) has increased steadily in most countries in parallel with a rise in the proportion of the population who live in cities 1,2 . This has led to a widely reported view that urbanization is one of the most important drivers of the global rise in obesity 3–6 . Here we use 2,009 population-based studies, with measurements of height and weight in more than 112 million adults, to report national, regional and global trends in mean B…

In conclusion, changes in the environment to targeting parental perception of neighborhood safety could have positive effects on the promotion of healthy weight and the adoption of a healthy lifestyle in school-aged children
Social inequalities in traditional and emerging screen devices among Portuguese children
Considering the negative health impacts of excessive screen time, recognizing subgroups at risk of excessive screen time and identifying how each device is used according to age is fundamental to enable appropriate future interventions. The screen time in children aged 3-10 years is longer than the recommended, particularly among boys and in those children from lower SEP. Parents and policymakers should have in mind that children spend most of th…
