The purpose of this study was to investigate the patterns of objectively measured sedentary behaviour in adults with intellectual disabilities.
Baseline accelerometer data were pooled from two randomized controlled trials of lifestyle behaviour change programmes for adults with intellectual disabilities. Patterns of sedentary behaviours were computed including total volume, number, and duration of bouts and breaks.
Participants spent >70% of the day sedentary (8 hr), which was generally accumulated in short sedentary bouts (<10 min). Participants were engaged in significantly more sedentary time during the morning, although differences between time of day were small (mean bout duration range: 19.8-22.3 min).
The findings add valuable insight into the patterns of sedentary behaviours among adults with intellectual disabilities. Further research investigating the patterns and context of sedentary behaviour is required to develop targeted interventions to reduce total sedentary time in adults with intellectual disabilities.
本研究旨在探讨智力障碍成年人中客观测量的久坐行为模式。
从两项智力障碍成年人生活方式行为改变计划的随机对照试验中汇集了基线加速度计数据。计算了久坐行为的模式,包括总量、次数和时间以及休息时间。
参与者每天超过 70%的时间(8 小时)处于久坐状态,通常是在短时间的久坐小插曲中(<10 分钟)。参与者在早上有更多的久坐时间,尽管一天中时间的差异很小(平均小插曲持续时间范围:19.8-22.3 分钟)。
这些发现为智力障碍成年人的久坐行为模式提供了有价值的见解。需要进一步研究久坐行为的模式和背景,以制定针对智力障碍成年人的干预措施,减少他们的总久坐时间。
