KIN : STUDY EXAM WITH ANSWERS


1. What is the relationship between sedentary behavior and

mental health outcomes in young people? Why do we need to

be cautious while interpreting these results?

- In the Biddle and Asare Review (2011), they found

consistent: small, negative associations between sedentary

behavior and mental well-being

- correlational studies

- Less evidence investigating sedentary behavior and mental

health outcomes

- Relationships may not be as strong because the health incomes

have not happened yet



2. Understand the research on sedentary behavior and health in

adults. Be aware of the results of the different articles and

reviews.

- Thorp, et al. (2011) concluded that there was a consistent

relationship between self reported sedentary behavior and:

increased risk of all-cause mortality; Cardiovascular Disease–

related mortality; and all-other-causes mortality in men and

women (increased sedentary behavior related to increase in

death)

- Chau, et al. (2013) reported that each hour of daily sitting is

associated with an over 2% increase of all-cause mortality.

, However, this was not a linear relationship.

- 5% increased risk for each 1 hour increment of adults sitting >

7 hours per day

- 34% higher mortality risk in adults sitting 10 hours/ day




3. Why is it important to study sedentary behaviors

independently from variables such as activity behaviors and

BMI?

, - Removes those who had high BMIs and those who are inactive of

PA

- Shows that it can still affect those who are active and have

healthy BMIs



4. Understand health risks and diseases associated with

sedentary behaviors. How is time spent sitting related to

mortality rates?

- Sedentary Behavior also associated with:

- Risk of type 2 diabetes


- Specific cancers

- Obesity

- Metabolic syndrome

- Mental health issues

- These findings are similar in older adults (>60 years old)

- Chau, et al. (2013) reported that each hour of daily sitting is

associated with an over 2% increase of all-cause mortality.

However, this was not a linear relationship.

- 5% increased risk for each 1 hour increment of adults sitting >

7 hours per day

- 34% higher mortality risk in adults sitting 10 hours/ day



5. Can activity breaks help to lower the health risks associated

with sedentary behaviors?

- Yes, they are a useful intervention method
