Abstract des Autors
Seasonality appears to have an impact on children's physical activity levels, but equivocal findings demand more study in this area. With the increased use of pedometers in both research and practice, collecting descriptive data in various seasons to examine the impact of seasonality on pedometer-measured physical activity among children is warranted. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the pedometer-determined children's weekday physical activity levels during winter and spring. Aus der Einführung
