Emerging Adulthood and College‐aged Youth: An Overlooked Age for Weight‐related Behavior Change (2008, background): “Furthermore, a recent analysis of the National Health Interview survey data (18) indicated that age-related declines in physical activity are particularly pronounced between 15 and 18 years of age and continue through age 21.”
Exploring the experience of introjected regulation for exercise across gender in adolescence (2009, background): “expected within a general female population at this age (Caspersen et al., 2000).”
Amount of time spent in sedentary behaviors in the United States, 2003-2004. (2008, result): “(27) reported a reduction in overall activity levels with increasing age among men in this NHANES sample, which suggests that the increase in time spent in sedentary behavior we observed may not be offset by increases in leisuretime physical activity as reported by previous investigators (28, 29).”
An assessment of self-reported physical activity instruments in young people for population surveillance: Project ALPHA (2011, neutral): “The YRBS was developed in the early 1990s and has been extensively used since, including for large scale surveillance across a good range of children and youth in the USA [22,23] (see http://www.”
Physical activity in older people: a systematic review (2013, result): “The decline in PA with age may be the most consistent finding in PA epidemiology [60,61] with the higher PA prevalence among males echoing the findings of previous studies [62] which may reflect increasing disability with age and cultural norms across the genders.”
