Bidirectional relationship between sleep and sedentary behavior in adults with overweight or obesity: A secondary analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Study objectives

The relationships between daytime sedentary behavior and that night's sleep and sleep and next day's sedentary behavior are unknown. The purpose of this analysis was to examine these potentially bidirectional associations.

Methods

This study was a secondary analysis of baseline data from an ecological momentary assessment study to determine the triggers for dietary lapses during a weight loss intervention. Sedentary behavior, physical activity, and sleep were objectively measured using accelerometers. Linear mixed modeling was used to examine the bidirectional multivariate associations between activity and sleep characteristics for each outcome examined separately. The models included sex, age, body mass index (BMI), education, and day of the week (weekday v
