Daily sleep and physical activity from accelerometry in adults: Temporal associations and lag effects.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Insufficient sleep is linked to various health issues, while physical activity is a protective measure against chronic diseases. Despite the importance of sleep and physical activity for supporting public health, there remains scant research investigating daily and cumulative associations between objectively measured physical activity and sleep. Understanding the associations of physical activity and sleep behaviors over multiple days may inform the efficacy of interventions to synergistically support both behaviors.

Method

Data were from the Community of Mine study (N=367 with complete data). Participants wore ActiGraph GT3X+ accelerometers on their wrist and hip for 14days. Sleep was defined as total sleep time (h/night), wakefulness after sleep onset (min), and
