  • The dependent variables in the linear mixed effects regression models were MVPA1 min and VPA1 min (min/day) as continuous variables.

  • MVPA1 min, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (≥3 metabolic equivalents (METs)) calculated from single 1 min bouts throughout the measurement period.

  • VPA1 min, vigorous physical activity (≥6 METs) calculated from single 1 min bouts throughout the measurement period.
