Current guidelines in place for sleep and physical activity in childhood are the result of data collected in the form of self-reports. Exact measurement of activity dimensions and sleep characteristics are essential. The purpose of clearly established parameters is for the intent of verifying health outcomes and evaluating interventions. The purpose of this research was to determine the relationships between the objective dimensions of physical activity, sleep, weight status, academic achievement, and academic behavior. This cross-sectional correlational descriptive design examined the activity and sleep patterns continuously for 24 hours/7 days with triaxial accelerometers in a low income African American sample of 8-year-olds. A qualitative component gathered additional identifiers. This sample was overweight/obese, inactive, and sleep-deprived. Moderate-vigorous activity was correlated with reading scores. Confirmed in this research was the association between sleep duration, physical activity intensities, and academics. Positive health outcomes in children are endorsed by an energy balance.
目前针对儿童睡眠和体育活动的指导方针是基于自我报告形式收集的数据得出的。准确测量活动维度和睡眠特征至关重要。明确参数的目的是为了验证健康结果和评估干预措施。本研究旨在确定身体活动、睡眠、体重状况、学业成绩和学习行为的客观维度之间的关系。本横断面相关性描述性设计使用三轴加速度计对低收入非裔美国 8 岁儿童进行了 7 天 24 小时的连续活动和睡眠模式监测。定性部分收集了其他标识符。该样本超重/肥胖、不活跃且睡眠不足。中高强度活动与阅读成绩呈正相关。本研究证实了睡眠持续时间、身体活动强度和学业之间的关联。通过能量平衡来促进儿童的健康结果。
