Table 10 Average duration of PA and SB levels during an average care and non-care moment

From: A within-subject examination of grandparents’ physical activity and sedentary behavior levels in the presence or absence of grandchild care provision

Outcome variables

Mean ± SD

Light intensity physical activity (LIPA) (min.moment− 1)

Care moment

137.0 ± 40.7

Non-care moment

109.9 ± 47.2

Moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) (min.moment− 1)

Care moment

14.4 ± 23.6

Non-care moment

18.8 ± 27.7

Sedentary behavior (SB) (min.moment− 1)

Care moment

190.7 ± 44.2

Non-care moment

213.6 ± 53.4

  1. SD: standard deviation; LIPA: light intensity physical activity; MVPA: moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity; SB: sedentary behavior. The total duration of both the average care moment and corresponding non-care moment is 342.3 min
