Young women’s experiences using technology for physical activity and its perceived impact on physical activity and physical literacy
Young women report low levels of physical activity (PA), which hinders the development of their physical literacy (skills and behaviours that support PA). Technology-supported PA (interactive digital tools that promote PA) may improve PA and physical literacy. This study examines young women’s experiences with technology-supported PA, their perceptions of technology-supported PA, and the way that technology-supported PA can align with components …
Effect of a school-based multicomponent intervention on time-segmented physical activity and sedentary behavior among adolescents
Clinical Trials - NCT02944318. Registration Date: 10/24/2016
Influence of park visitation on physical activity, well-being and social connectedness among Australians during Covid-19
This cross-sectional study examined associations of park visitation with physical activity (PA), well-being, and social connectedness among 1089 participants during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. In August 2020, adolescents and adults in Australia self-reported demographics, usual park visitation, frequency and duration of park visits, PA, well-being and social connectedness. Multilevel linear regression models examined associations of pa…
The association between device-measured sitting time and cardiometabolic health risk factors in children
Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry: ACTRN12609000715279
Movement behaviour typologies and their associations with adiposity indicators in children and adolescents
Our study highlights the importance of promoting active lifestyles in children and adolescents to potentially reduce adiposity. These findings can provide insights for interventions aimed at promoting healthy MB and preventing childhood obesity
Associations between the neighbourhood social environment and preschool children’s physical activity and screen time
Social interaction showed the most consistent associations with physical activity and screen time. Future research should consider potential mediators of this relationship, including parental facilitation of children's outdoor time. Improving understanding of the relationship between the NSE and physical activity and screen time in young children can help to guide community-based initiatives striving to optimise behavioural, health and social out…
Everything kind of revolves around technology”
Families are experiencing challenges in managing the complex balance between the increased need for screens and the impact it has on the family. These findings provide valuable parent and child insights to assist in developing screen time management programs that are created with an understanding of the needs and challenges of families
Changes in Families’ Leisure, Educational/Work and Social Screen Time Behaviours before and during Covid-19 in Australia
This study aimed to understand differences in leisure, educational/work and social screen time behaviours experienced by parents and children due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions, which may inform behaviour change strategies and policy in the transition to a COVID-normal life. Participants in the "Our Life at Home" study ( n = 218 parents from Australia, 43.4 ± 6.8 years, 88% female) completed a cross-sectional online survey in April/May 2020. P…
Effectiveness and moderators of a multicomponent school-based intervention on screen time devices
Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT02944318 (25/10/2016)
Home-based screen time behaviors amongst youth and their parents
Three familial typologies of screen time behaviors were identified. The findings highlight that screen time in the home can be influenced by the home environment, parental behaviours and role modelling, child preferences as well as school policies. Findings can inform the development of family screen time interventions, however more research exploring the influence of factors outside of the home is warranted
Informing Behaviour Change
Home-based interventions targeting children's sedentary behaviours have had limited and inconsistent effectiveness, possibly due to a mismatch between the behaviours targeted, the behaviours actually performed, and health-risk messages parents need to initiate change. Between October 2017-February 2018, 540 parents completed an online survey indicating their own and their child's participation in 15 home-based sedentary behaviours (child mean age…
The Relationship between Objectively Measured and Self-Reported Sedentary Behaviours and Social Connectedness among Adolescents
Adolescents spend significant amounts of time engaged in various types of sedentary behaviour (SB). This study examined associations between adolescents' objectively measured sedentary time, sitting time, specific self-reported SBs and social connectedness. Adolescents ( n = 429, 15.5 years, 41% male) completed an online survey reporting time in seven SBs (TV/videos/DVDs, computer/video games, internet, homework, reading, car and bus travel; exam…
Exploring when and how adolescents sit
Adolescents spent two-thirds of their waking hours sitting, with distinct patterns on weekdays and weekend days. Even though boys and girls were exposed to the same school day routine, girls spent more time sitting and had fewer sitting breaks. Class times, school breaks and the evening period were identified as key intervention periods. Further research is needed to understand the behavioural differences, and guide future intervention design
Longitudinal Changes in Sitting Patterns, Physical Activity, and Health Outcomes in Adolescents
This study examined two-year changes in patterns of activity and associations with body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) among adolescents. Inclinometers (activPAL) assessed sitting, sitting bouts, standing, stepping, and breaks from sitting. ActiGraph-accelerometers assessed sedentary time (SED), light-intensity physical activity (LIPA, stratified as low- and high-LIPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Anthropomet…
The Impact of Activity Based Working (ABW) on Workplace Activity, Eating Behaviours, Productivity, and Satisfaction
The redesign of the physical workplace according to activity-based working (ABW) principles has potential to influence employee health and workplace outcomes. This natural experiment examined changes in accelerometer-derived workplace activity, self-reported eating behaviours, productivity, workplace satisfaction before (March to November 2014) and six to nine months after moving to an ABW workplace compared to a comparison workplace ( n = 146 at…
A translational research intervention to reduce screen behaviours and promote physical activity among children
Translational or implementation research that assesses the effectiveness of strategies to promote health behaviours among children that have been previously tested under 'ideal' conditions is rarely reported. Switch-2-Activity aimed to examine the effectiveness of an abbreviated programme delivered by teachers targeting children's television viewing, computer use, physical activity and potential mediators of behaviour change. Fifteen schools from…
