Striking the right balance of daily 24-h physical behaviors in preschoolers
Preschool-aged children’s daily activity patterns play a crucial role in their health and development, yet there is limited research on the optimal time-use composition of activities. Previous studies suggest that sleep, sedentary behavior (SB), light physical activity (LPA), and moderate-to-vigorou...

| Sumario: | Preschool-aged children’s daily activity patterns play a crucial role in their health and development, yet there is limited research on the optimal time-use composition of activities. Previous studies suggest that sleep, sedentary behavior (SB), light physical activity (LPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) all contribute to various health outcomes in children. However, the ideal balance of these activities for optimal development is not well understood. This study aimed to determine the optimal composition of daily activities (sleep, SB, LPA, MVPA) for preschoolers, in relation to body composition, motor skills, and cognition, using compositional data analysis (CoDA). |
