People living with severe mental illness (SMI) face significant health inequalities, including reduced quality of life and life expectancy. Evidence has shown that people living with SMI are highly sedentary, ...
Physical activity (PA) plays a critical role in preventing non-communicable diseases, and maintaining the overall health and well-being of adults. PA surveillance has become a global concern leading to the dev...
Physical activity is a crucial aspect of health benefits in the public society. Although studies on the temporal physical activity patterns might lead to the protocol for efficient intervention/program, a stan...

Adherence to the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines (24 H-MG) has been associated with a reduced risk of developing various chronic conditions. However, its association with frailty and all-cause mortality h...
Steatotic liver disease (SLD) is a prevalent metabolic disease. While single component movement behaviors have been related to its development, comprehensive assessments of their joint associations are scarce.
Canada, Australia, the World Health Organization and other countries have released 24-hour movement guidelines for the early years which integrate physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep, focusing on...
Traditional intensity-based physical activity measures and variable-centered statistics may not fully capture the complex associations between sitting time, physical activity, and obesity indices. This study i...
Sedentary behavior has been identified as a public health concern. The present study analyzed the correlates of sedentary behavior in Brazilian adolescents through network analysis, in the light of an ecologic...
Engaging in healthy movement behaviours in early childhood is beneficial for childrenās development, and parents play a critical role in shaping movement habits during these formative years. This study aimed t...
Adolescent insufficient sleep is an endemic issue that may result in compromised functioning throughout the course of the day and is associated with increased risk for a variety of adverse outcomes. Early scho...
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), an autoimmune systemic inflammatory disease, affects more than 17 million people globally. People with RA have higher risk of premature mortality; often experience chronic fatigue, p...
Researchers have adopted a variety of analytical techniques to examine the collective influence of 24-h movement behaviors (i.e., physical activity, sedentary behaviors, sleep) on mental health, but efforts to...
Daily time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), light-intensity physical activity (LIPA), sedentary behaviour (SB) and sleep (collectively known as āmovement behavioursā) are compositional, ...
In trauma-affected refugees with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), research on physical activity is scarce. Knowing more about the relation between physical activity and PTSD symptoms may provide insight i...
Insomnia is a serious health problem among older adults and, if untreated, is linked to a high morbidity rate and decreased quality of life. There is limited empirical evidence on Insomnia and its treatment-se...
The nature of human movement and non-movement behaviors is complex and multifaceted, making their study complicated and challenging. Thanks to the availability of wearable activity monitors, we can now monitor...
Insufficient sleep has been linked to the accumulation of cardiometabolic risks while physical activity acts as a protective factor. Also, sleep regularity may play a critical role in maintaining optimal cardi...
Insufficient sleep can increase the risk of health problems and chronic conditions including cognitive problems, increased inflammation, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and overall mortality. In this repo...
The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified the prevention of obesity in young children as one of its key priorities for the 21st century, and 24-hour movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary b...
Despite the widespread endorsement of 24-h movement guidelines (physical activity, sleep, screentime) for youth, no standardized processes for categorizing guideline achievement exists. The purpose of this stu...
The ActivityStat hypothesis proposes that an increase or decrease in physical activity (PA) greater than a certain set point activates behavioural and/or energy compensatory responses to maintain a stable leve...
This study documents and compares temporal patterns of physical behaviours, assessed using accelerometry, on working and non-working days among normal-weight (body mass index [BMI]ā<ā25 kg/m2) and overweight (BMI...
Exercise interventions fail to increase objective physical activity (PA) in persons with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS), while they self-report higher exercise participation. This suggests that PwMS change their no...
There is debate whether nurses are active enough stemming from differences in measurement tools, clinical contexts, and nursing tasks. A descriptive case study concerning the use of device-based measures in co...
Chronic disease is the leading cause of death globally. Sleep, diet, and physical activity are modifiable health behaviours that are key for reducing the burden of chronic disease. These health behaviours are ...
Physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour are major public health problems. We examined the individual and joint associations of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and total sitting time with emotional we...
Like many places globally, the health and well-being of children and youth living in Canada were significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Restricted access to the outdoors, schools, and public green sp...
Recently, there has been a paradigm shift from considering physical activity and sedentary behaviour as āindependentā risk factors of health to acknowledging their co-dependency and compositional nature. The f...
This study will evaluate the barriers and facilitators that families experience in adhering to the 24-hour movement behaviours guidelines as outlined by World Health Organisation (WHO).
Physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour independently increase morbidity and negatively affect quality of life. This study evaluates the associations between physical activity and sedentary behaviour with ...
Optimizing childhood domain-specific physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) for blood lipid profile is not well understood. We aimed to (1) determine the associations between accelerometer-measured...
More and more researchers have started to analyse device-measured physical activity data using compositional data analysis (CoDA), which has led to that the effect of relative time in different behaviours can ...
Parentsā own movement behaviours can influence those of their children, thus contributing to the health and well-being of the whole family. Parents experienced a shift in work and childcare responsibilities du...
Physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep are interrelated and may have a synergistic impact on health. This systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies aimed to evaluate the combi...
Studies to date that investigate combined impacts of health behaviors, have rarely examined device-based movement behaviors alongside other health behaviors, such as smoking, alcohol, and sleep, on cardiometab...
Physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep are key components to health and well-being. Compositional data analysis of activity data overcomes the limitations of traditional statistical approaches and c...
How much time children spend sleeping, being sedentary and participating in physical activity affects their health and well-being. To provide accurate guidelines for childrenās time use, it is important to und...
No citation analysis has examined peer-reviewed sedentary behaviour research articles, which is needed to assess the impact of this research and identify knowledge gaps. Therefore, this study aimed to identify...
Time-use estimates are typically used to describe 24-hour movement behaviours. However, these behaviours can additionally be characterised by other easily measured metrics. These include sleep quality (e.g., s...
People with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes (T2D) need to be physically active, including moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and light-intensity physical activity (LIPA) and reduce time in ...
Pedometers have been shown to be effective for increasing physical activity, however the potential additional effects of activity trackers, and their added capacity to simultaneously modify sedentary behaviour...
