Behavior27
  • This study examined the concurrent associations of physical activity and screen-based sedentary behavior with sleep duration among adolescents by using data from the national Youth Risk Behavior Survey 2011-2013. (cdc.gov)
  • Using latent class analysis, we identified 4 latent subgroups of adolescents with various levels of physical activity and screen-based sedentary behavior. (cdc.gov)
  • The subgroup with high levels of physical activity and low levels of sedentary behavior generally showed greater odds of having sufficient sleep (≥8 hours/night) than the other subgroups. (cdc.gov)
  • Findings imply that concurrent achievement of a high level of physical activity and low level of screen-based sedentary behavior is necessary to promote sufficient sleep among adolescents. (cdc.gov)
  • Physical activity (PA) and screen-based sedentary behavior (SB) are receiving attention as focal points for interventions aimed at improving sleep health because of factors related to each behavior - for PA, body tissue restitution, energy conservation, and temperature downregulation (2,3) and for screen-based SB, displacement of sleep time, arousal (being agitated or "wired"), and light exposure from a screen device (4,5). (cdc.gov)
  • The study, led by lead author Dr. Dorothy Dunlop, examined whether time spent in sedentary behavior, such as sitting, is related to disability in activities of daily living (ADL), like simply moving around the home or apartment, independent of time spent in moderate-vigorous activity in older adults. (cdc.gov)
  • As the authors note, the study contributes substantially to the growing body of literature identifying sedentary behavior as a "separate disability risk factor" and not simply a "synonym for inadequate physical activity. (cdc.gov)
  • They conclude that "the strong demonstrated relationship between ADL disability and sedentary behavior suggests the importance of considering clinical, policy, and programmatic strategies to reduce sedentary behavior among older adults, particularly those with disabilities. (cdc.gov)
