Changes in physical activity and sedentary time in the Finnish Schools on the Move program: a quasi-experimental study

2017

The aim of the Finnish Schools on the Move program is to create a more active and pleasant school day through physical activity (PA).

Altogether 319 girls and boys aged 7–15 participated in the study between 2010 and 2012. MVPA and ST were measured four times over the 1.5-year follow-up period for seven consecutive days, using a hip-worn ActiGraph accelerometer. Linear growth curve modeling was used to examine the effect…
