Biopsychosocial correlates of physical activity and sedentary time in adults with severe obesity

This study shows that adults living with severe obesity who have more comorbidities, poorer quality of life and/or lower self‐efficacy perception for PA are more likely to be sedentary and to practice less light intensity PA. Additionally, those who were in a relationship, had higher SPA and/or had lower physical fitness practiced less MVPA. Future research is needed to determine causal effects.
