Six-month follow-up of a theory-informed, multi-component intervention to reduce sedentary behaviour in the workplace

Cogent Psychology, 2018
There is limited evidence exploring the long-term effectiveness of sedentary behaviour interventions. This study aimed to explore participant experiences six months post-intervention to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of a low-cost, theory-informed,

Rural Labor Supply and Economic Opportunities: Commuting, Migration, Tariffs, and Immigration

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some rural counties remain dependent on agricultural or manufacturing jobs, but an increasing proportion have diversified economics. Rural counties also differ in their abilities to commute to an urban market characterized by higher wages and labor productivity.

Associations of physical activity and sedentary behavior with happiness in Japanese worker types of occupational activity requirements

Scientific Reports
Happiness is a fundamental human life goal. For working adults, sedentary behavior (SB) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) may be differently associated with happiness depending on occupational activity requirements.

Physical activity and sedentary behavior patterns and sociodemographic correlates in 116,982 adults from six South American countries: the South American physical activity and sedentary behavior network (SAPASEN)

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2019
Background Physical inactivity and sedentary behavior are major concerns for public health. Although global initiatives have been successful in monitoring physical activity (PA) worldwide, there is no systematic action for the monitoring of correlates of
