Application of the transtheoretical model to sedentary behaviors and its association with physical activity status
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-04-27)
Background: The Transtheoretical Model (TTM) is a successful framework for guiding behavior change programs for several health behaviors, yet its application to reduce of sedentary behavior has been neglected. In addition, ...
Step-based physical activity metrics and cardiometabolic risk: NHANES 2005-2006
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2017-02)
Purpose: This study aimed to catalog the relationships between step-based accelerometer metrics indicative of physical activity volume (steps per day, adjusted to a pedometer scale), intensity (mean steps per minute from ...
Walking cadence (steps/min) and intensity in 21-40 year olds: CADENCE-adults
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-01-17)
Background: Previous studies have reported that walking cadence (steps/min) is associated with absolutely-defined intensity (metabolic equivalents; METs), such that cadence-based thresholds could serve as reasonable proxy ...
Pilot study of impact of a pedal desk on postprandial responses in sedentary workers
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2018-10)
Physical inactivity has been linked to rates of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease through insulin resistance and other mechanisms. Although sedentary workplace environments have unintentionally contributed to the risk ...
Evaluations of validity and reliability of a transtheoretical model for sedentary behavior among college students
(JCFCorp SG PTE LTD, 2015-09)
Objective: To evaluate the measurement properties of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) questionnaire for sedentary behaviors among college students and to examine the validity and reliability of the developed TTM questionnaire. ...
Differential use of strategic constructs of the transtheoretical model across accelerometer-determined sedentary time
(JCFCorp SG PTE LTD, 2020-01)
Objectives: In this study, we investigated the differences in strategic constructs of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) across accelerometer-determined sedentary time. Methods: A total of 201 college students participated ...
Cadence (steps/min) and intensity during ambulation in 6-20 year olds: The CADENCE-kids study
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-02-26)
Background: Steps/day is widely utilized to estimate the total volume of ambulatory activity, but it does not directly reflect intensity, a central tenet of public health guidelines. Cadence (steps/min) represents an ...
