dc.description.abstractThe KiSS UC study (n=224) measured all four movement behaviours from the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines: light physical activity (LPA), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sleep, and sedentary behaviour (SB). The study objectives were to determine the: 1) proportion of participants meeting those guidelines, 2) factors associated with meeting the guidelines (sex, age, camp type, ethnicity, number of other children in the household, parent education), and 3) out-of-camp activities engaged in. Garmin vivofits measured LPA and sleep; Garmin heart rate monitors and Actihearts measured MVPA; SB and out-of-camp activities were assessed using questionnaires (CAPL, CPAQ, respectively). A large proportion of participants met the LPA (88%), MVPA (100%), sleep (65%), and SB (78%) guidelines. Age, parent education, sex, and number of other children in the household were significant predictors for sleep and SB. In summary, summer camps may be a setting where each of the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines can be met.en_US
