- epmaybe 9y agoNote that in the paper, they mentioned controlling for age. Also mentioned is that this data is preliminary, hence the low sample size.
- nonbel 9y agoHere is the activity survey: http://www.sdp.univ.fvg.it/sites/default/files/IPAQ_English_self-admin_long.pdf http://www.sdp.univ.fvg.it/sites/default/files/IPAQ_English_... The paper was confusing because they reported an average of 7 hours sitting each day and 1500 minutes per week of "physical activity" (3.5 hrs a day). So basically anything besides sitting and sleeping seems to be counted as physical activity. It does sound like almost anything is counted as physical activity: "on how many days did you do moderate activities like carrying light loads, washing windows, scrubbing floors and sweeping inside your home"
