Sedentary Profiles: A New Perspective on Accumulation Patterns in Sedentary Behavior

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2021
ABSTRACT The health effects of sedentary behavior (SB) may be moderated by SB accumulation patterns (e.g., in prolonged bouts). These patterns are challenging to assess thoroughly and interpretably. Purpose The purpose of this study is to introduce SB profiles (i.e., groups of

Assessing Sedentary Behavior with the GENEActiv

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2014
The Sedentary Sphere is a method for the analysis, identification, and visual presentation of sedentary behaviors from a wrist-worn triaxial accelerometer.This study aimed to introduce the concept of the Sedentary Sphere and to determine the accuracy of posture classification from wrist accelerometer data.Three samples were used: 1) free living (n = 13,

The Evolving Definition of "Sedentary"

Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, 2008
Studies that did not directly measure sedentary behavior often have been used to draw conclusions about the health effects of sedentariness. Future claims about the effects of sedentary, light, and moderate-to-vigorous activities on health outcomes should be supported by data from studies in which all levels of physical activity are differentiated ...
