| Popis: | Background Neighborhood attributes are modifiable determinants of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB). We tested whether the objectively-assessed built and social environment was associated with PA and SB in Swiss youth and whether sex, age and the socioeconomic position (Swiss-SEP) modified such associations. Methods We combined data of 1742 youth (ages 4 to 17) from seven studies conducted within Switzerland between 2005–2010. All youth provided accelerometer data and a home address, which was linked to objective environmental data and the Swiss-SEP-index. Associations between neighborhood attributes and PA were analyzed by multivariable multilevel regression analyses. Results The extent of green areas and building density was positively associated with PA in the total sample (p Highlights • Comprehensive assessment of objectively measured neighborhood attributes in Europe • Effects of neighborhood attributes on PA differed by age-group, sex and socioeconomic neighborhood. • Associations between neighborhood attributes and PA were more pronounced in youth from low socioeconomic areas. • Strongest associations with green spaces and centrally located areas |
