Subclaims¶

q3 i? Active children with both low and high screen time showed higher SR than the inactive/high screen time group (p = 0.002 and p = 0.020). → López-Gil 2020

Evidence¶

López-Gil 2020¶

López-Gil, J.F., Oriol-Granado, X., Izquierdo, M., Ramírez-Vélez, R., Fernández-Vergara, O., Olloquequi, J., & García-Hermoso, A. (2020). Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors and Their Association with Self-Regulation in Chilean Children. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph17165676

q3 · i? · associational · r2

ANCOVA with Bonferroni pairwise post-hoc comparisons across four combined PA and screen time groups in 1561 children, adjusted for covariates. Both active groups "showed higher SR compared to the inactive/high ST group".

"Active groups both with low (p = 0.002) and high ST (p = 0.020) showed higher SR compared to the inactive/high ST group."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Active children show higher self-regulation than inactive children, and children with under 2 h/day screen time show higher self-regulation than those with 2 h or more
• Children meeting more healthy lifestyle habits show higher self-regulation — related
• Physical activity is positively correlated with self-regulation in Chilean children aged 8–12 — a broader claim this one bears on
• Screen time is negatively correlated with self-regulation in Chilean children — related
