Associations of volumes and patterns of physical activity with metabolic health in children: A multivariate pattern analysis approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Physical activity (PA) favorably affects metabolic health in children, but it is unclear how total volumes versus patterns (bouts and breaks) of PA relate to health. By means of multivariate pattern analysis that can handle ... -
Effects of physical activity on schoolchildren's academic performance: The Active Smarter Kids (ASK) cluster-randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-10)Objective. To investigate the effect of a seven-month, school-based cluster-randomized controlled trial on academic performance in 10-year-old children. Methods. In total, 1129 fifth-grade children from 57 elementary schools ... -
The multivariate physical activity signature associated with metabolic health in children and youth: An International Children's Accelerometry Database (ICAD) analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)There is solid evidence for an association between physical activity and metabolic health outcomes in children and youth, but for methodological reasons most studies describe the intensity spectrum using only a few summary ... -
Physical activity intensity profiles associated with cardiometabolic risk in middle-aged to older men and women
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Accelerometers provide detailed data about physical activity (PA) across the full intensity spectrum. However, when examining associations with health, results are often aggregated to only a few summary measures [e.g. time ...
