“…Eating a meal together and sitting and talking about things together are among the most frequent joint activities, while playing sports together and playing indoor games together are the less frequent activities, what was confirmed also in the study of Zaborskis et al [65]. In the study of Vokacova et al [66] reported time trends in joint family activities between 2002 and 2014. Compared with 2002, there was a slight increase in four out of the six selected joint family activities (watching TV or a video, playing indoor games, eating meals, going for a walk, going places, visiting friends or relatives, playing sports, sitting and chatting).…”

Family time may have an influence on children’s physical activity (PA) participation or may contribute to increased sedentary behaviour. The aim of this paper was to examine whether spending family time is associated with the PA of children aged 10–11. Cross-sectional data on 158 primary school children (80 girls and 78 boys) with a mean age of 10.6 ± 0.49 years were collected. Weight and height were used to calculate body mass index. The level of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was determined with a physical activity screening measure. Participants wore a Vivofit® wrist band activity tracker to measure their daily number of steps. The Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children questionnaire was used to obtain information from children about the frequency of activities undertaken by the family. Analyses entailed descriptive statistics of the total sample and by gender, t-test, and the Mann–Whitney U-test to examine the gender differences and Spearman’s correlation coefficients. It was found that 32.3% of the children did not accomplish at least 60 min per day on ≥5 of the seven days and more than 75.9% of them did not accumulate at least 12,000 or more steps daily. More boys than girls tended to be sufficiently active and met the guideline of at least 60 min per day on ≥5 of the seven days (70.5% and 65.0%, respectively) or 12,000 steps per day (25.8% and 10.0%, respectively). The number of steps during the weekday was significantly and inversely associated both in girls and in boys with active family time (r = −0.27 and r = −0.25, respectively), and with total family time (r = −0.28) and non-active family time (r = −0.25) only in boys. Average MVPA was also inversely correlated with active family time (r = −0.31), non-active family time (r = −0.24), and total family time (r = −0.29) in boys. The correlation effect size values ranged between small to medium significant differences for these measures. The findings underscore the need for community-based PA programmes designed for whole families to meet the recommended PA of children and also to develop and promote active leisure activities among families.

“…Moreover, families did not eat together as often as in 2002, which might have negative consequences for healthy adolescent development. Also, adolescents aged 11 got involved in joint family activities more than their older counterparts [66].…”

“…Youth tend to spend more time with peers and start to form cliques (Gifford‐Smith & Brownell, 2003; Larson & Verma, 1999). This happens at the expense of shared family time, which becomes rarer with increasing age (Vokacova, Badura, Pavelka, Kalman, & Hanus, 2016; Zaborskis, Zemaitiene, Borup, Kuntsche, & Moreno, 2007). Consequently, parental control and knowledge about their children's friends and activities decreases, and adolescents might disclose less to their parents (Keijsers & Poulin, 2013).…”

The study assessed the association of family environment factors with adolescents' participation in organized leisure-time activities (OLTA). We used data on 10,472 Czech adolescents aged 11e15 years (49.2% boys) from the 2013/2014 Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study. The associations of family support, the presence of parental screen-time rules and joint family activities with participation in at least one OLTA were assessed using logistic regression. High family support and the presence of parental screen-time rules were associated with higher odds of OLTA participation. Moreover, adolescents playing sports, indoor games and going for walks with their families at least weekly were more likely to participate in OLTA. Conversely, those spending time in joint family TV/video watching on most days were less likely to do so. A supportive family environment and direct parental involvement in their adolescent children's leisure are associated with OLTA participation in early to middle adolescence.

“…Especially girls tend to experience more difficulties in talking with their fathers, both biological and stepfathers (24,30). This may be associated with the overall higher frequency and quality of time spent by boys with their family, especially with their fathers (16,31). Girls, in contrast, experience greater limitations on their freedom and higher levels of parental monitoring (16,32).…”
