Physical Activity Dependence on Relative Temperature and Humidity Characteristics in a Young, Insufficiently Active Population: A Weather Typing Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Results are a first step in providing additional guidance for encouraging PA in insufficiently active individuals given forecasted daily weather conditions. Future work should examine seasonal variability in the weather type-PA relationship without the influence of a world-altering event influencing results.PMID:38290496 | DOI:10.1123/jpah.2023-0438 (Source: Journal of Physical Activity and Health)

Associations Between Intersecting Sociodemographic Characteristics and Device-Measured Physical Activity Among Children and Adolescents Living in the United States
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that patterns of physical activity behavior may differ based on intersecting sociodemographic characteristics-more socially disadvantaged children and adolescents appear to accumulate activity at lighter intensities. Collecting contextual information about device-measured physical activity represents an important next step for gaining insight into these sociodemographic differences.PMID:38281485 | DOI:10.1123/jpah.2023-0360 (Source: Journal of Physical Activity and Health)

Validation of the Portuguese Version of the Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument
CONCLUSIONS: Considering the lack of validated instruments, we suggest a fair use of Portuguese version of PPLI to access physical literacy in adults. This study contributes to the validation of the PPLI by providing evidence of its psychometric properties in the Portuguese-speaking adult population and facilitates comparative analysis with previous and future studies utilizing the PPLI instrument.PMID:38266630 | DOI:10.1123/jpah.2023-0223 (Source: Journal of Physical Activity and Health)

Serum Vitamin D Levels Mediate the Association Between Physical Activity and Blood Pressure in Adolescents
In this study, a multicenter, cross-sectional, and school-based investigation was conducted as part of the ERICA project. The sample comprised 1152 adolescents aged 12-17 years from 4 Brazilian cities. Anthropometric variables, BP measurements, and hydroxyvitamin D concentrations were assessed. A 2-level linear regression was fitted to examine the relationship between each level of BP and independent variables. Our findings indicate that movement behaviors were not associated with BP levels, with the exception of sleep time, which demonstrated a positive association. However, after adjustment, this association was found to...

Gender Differences in Caregivers' Attitudes to Risky Child Play in Britain: A Cross-Sectional Study
CONCLUSIONS: While there was no difference between male and female caregivers overall attitudes, gender differences were prominent for specific play activities and attitudes, with male caregivers demonstrating higher tolerance for the riskiest activities. Parents of boys expressed more permissive attitudes toward engagement in risky play. Further work is needed to identify why there is gender-related variation in these attitudes and should be considered in interventions that support parents in enabling adventurous play opportunities for children.PMID:38253052 | DOI:10.1123/jpah.2023-0676 (Source: Journal of Physical Activity and Health)

Associations Between Changes in 24-Hour Movement Behaviors in Children and Adolescents During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Review and Mediation-Based Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSION: Increased reliance on and use of screen-based devices during the COVID-19 pandemic can be linked with reduced child and adolescent physical activity. This finding links COVID-related restrictions to potential displacement effects within child and adolescent 24-hour movement behavior.PMID:38194951 | DOI:10.1123/jpah.2023-0346 (Source: Journal of Physical Activity and Health)
