Winpenny EM, Howe LD, van Sluijs EMF, Hardy R, Tilling K.
PMID: 34362821
J Epidemiol Community Health. 2021 Dec;75(12):1172-1180. doi: 10.1136/jech-2021-216611. Epub 2021 Aug 06.

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular health shows significant socioeconomic inequalities, however there is little understanding of the role of early adulthood in generation of these inequalities. We assessed the contribution of socioeconomic trajectories during early adulthood (16-24 years) to cardiovascular health in...

Active school travel contributes to children's physical, mental and social wellbeing. The prevalence of children's active school travel, however, has been declining in many developed countries. Gaining insights into school culture and environments in relation to school travel behaviour...

Reach, Recruitment, Dose, and Intervention Fidelity of the GoActive School-Based Physical Activity Intervention in the UK: A Mixed-Methods Process Evaluation.

Children (Basel, Switzerland)

Jong ST, Croxson CHD, Foubister C, Brown HE, Guell C, Lawlor ER, Wells EK, Wilkinson PO, Wilson ECF, van Sluijs EMF, Corder K.
PMID: 33212854
Children (Basel). 2020 Nov 17;7(11). doi: 10.3390/children7110231.

School-based multi-component physical activity (PA) promotion is advocated; however, research has indicated that a multi-component approach may not always be effective at increasing adolescent PA. Evaluation of the GoActive 12-week multi-component school-based intervention showed no effect on adolescent PA....

Cohabitation and marriage during the transition between adolescence and emerging adulthood: A systematic review of changes in weight-related outcomes, diet and physical activity.

Our aim was to systematically review the effect of cohabitation and marriage on physical activity, diet and weight-related outcomes during emerging adulthood. A systematic search of six electronic databases was conducted until July 2019 (PROSPERO:CRD42018106943). Prospective studies were included...

Can public sector community health workers deliver a nurturing care intervention in South Africa? The Amagugu Asakhula feasibility study.

Pilot and feasibility studies

J Transp Health. 2020 Mar;16:100815. doi: 10.1016/j.jth.2019.100815.

BACKGROUND: Cycling has the potential to encourage physical activity as well as advancing societal goals such as reducing carbon emissions; encouraging cycling is therefore a policy goal in many contexts. We analysed individual level data from the whole of...
