Eduardo Esteban Bustamante is senior author of "Sociodemographic disparities in sedentary time among US youth vary by period of the day" published in PLOS ONE. María Enid Santiago-Rodríguez '21 PHD KN is lead author of the study. David Marquez is among the authors.
The group analyzed accelerometry data in a representative sample of US youth, and found that sex disparities in sedentary time occur largely during school hours, while racial/ethnic disparities occur largely on weekends. It suggests that efforts to address these disparities should focus on these times and settings.
