Abstract
Introduction
Compositional associations between 24-h movement behaviours (physical activity [PA], sedentary behaviour [SED], and sleep) and children's health related quality of life (HRQoL) are unknown. This study aimed to use compositional data analysis (CoDA) to explore the relationship between device-measured 24-h movement behaviours and children's HRQoL. Hypothetically reallocating time in 24-h movement behaviours and children's HRQoL were also explored.
Methods
This cross-sectional study included 268 primary school children (8–11 years) in South-West Victoria, Australia. Wrist-worn ActiGraph GT3X accelerometers assessed movement behaviours, and HRQoL was self-reported. CoDA was used to examine associations between movement behaviours and HRQoL, and an isotemporal substitution analysis explored hypothetical changes in HRQoL when reallocating 10 and 30 min between behaviours.
Results
On average, children spent 45.7 % of their day sedentary, 27.2 % in sleep, 22.1 % in light-intensity PA (LPA), and 4.9 % in moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA). A greater proportion of sleep relative to SED was positively associated with HRQoL (β = 11.274, 95 % CI 5.456–17.093). Spending more time in MVPA relative to SED and LPA was related to higher HRQoL (β = 11.399, 95 % CI 5.201–117.593); and LPA findings were mixed. Reallocating 10 min from SED, LPA and sleep to MVPA was associated with a higher HRQoL score (β = 1.56; 95 % CI 1.11, 2.01).
Conclusions
Findings suggest that a greater proportion of MVPA, sleep, and lower SED were positively associated with HRQoL. Future interventions should prioritise reducing SED and promoting MVPA and sleep within the 24-hr movement behaviours.
期刊介绍:
The aims of Mental Health and Physical Activity will be: (1) to foster the inter-disciplinary development and understanding of the mental health and physical activity field; (2) to develop research designs and methods to advance our understanding; (3) to promote the publication of high quality research on the effects of physical activity (interventions and a single session) on a wide range of dimensions of mental health and psychological well-being (eg, depression, anxiety and stress responses, mood, cognitive functioning and neurological disorders, such as dementia, self-esteem and related constructs, psychological aspects of quality of life among people with physical and mental illness, sleep, addictive disorders, eating disorders), from both efficacy and effectiveness trials;
