“…It has been found that augmented reality applications, when integrated into cell phones, had a positive impact on physical education students' learning and advancing their spatial awareness and distance estimation [46]. Taken together, integrating and cross-referencing the data collected from wearable technologies and social media sites allows educators to better understand the impact of social interactions, spatial location and environment, psychological states and affect, and other behaviors on student physical activity levels and engagement [47].…”

The rapid development of social media has led to its increased use by children and adolescents for health and well-being purposes. Accordingly, social interactions resulting from social media use can be further integrated into physical and health education pedagogy. Given the relationship between increased physical literacy and positive health outcomes, best practices and lessons learned from social media use in the healthcare industry should be adopted by health and physical educators practicing in schools. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to comment on several practical and ethical challenges and opportunities associated with using social media to improve physical literacy among youth. Specifically, two of the most prominent issues are discussed in depth: (1) integration of social media in physical education settings that educate children and adolescents about the biopsychosocial effects of physical activity, and (2) use of wearable technologies among youth to accrue experiences that enhance physical literacy competencies. In our opinion, health and physical educators who utilize the ALL-ENGAGE Playbook described in this commentary will successfully reach, engage, and impact students with popular social media that adequately promotes physical literacy, including through experiential use of wearable technologies.

“…To increase the motivation to use a smart sensing tool for a healthier route choice, gamification is a promising example to integrate fun and interest in using the smartphone, especially for children [47]. In general, more research should harness smart sensing for exposure assessments with children and adolescents, as they have more complex and dynamic activity spaces [48,49].…”

Cyclists’ Multiple Environmental Urban Exposures—Comparing Subjective and Objective Measurements

et al. 2019

Citizens in urban areas are exposed to multiple environmental stressors like noise, heat, and air pollution, with impact on human health. There is a great deal of evidence that connects human health, objective environmental exposure, and place of residence. However, little is known about subjective and objective multiple personal exposures while being mobile. To address this research gap, this paper presents results from a mixed-methods exploratory study with cyclists in the City of Leipzig, Germany. In the summer of 2017, cyclists (n = 66) wore a unique combination of sensors that measured particle number counts (PNC), noise, humidity, temperature, geolocation, and the subjective perception of each exposure on everyday routes for one week (n = 730). A smartphone application was developed to question participants about their perception of subjective exposure. The data were analyzed with three aims: (i) to compare the multiple exposure profiles of the cyclists, (ii) to contrast the objective data and subjective individual perception, and (iii) to examine the role of route decision-making and awareness of health impacts for healthier route choices. The results indicate distinct differences between the exposure profiles of cyclists. Over 80% of the cyclists underestimated their exposure to noise and air pollution. Except for heat, no significant associations between the objective and subjective data were found. This reveals an exposure awareness gap that needs to be considered in urban health planning and risk communication. It is argued that knowledge about health impacts and route characteristics plays a crucial role in decision-making about route choices. The paper concludes with suggestions to harness smart sensing for exposure mitigation and research in health geography.

“…Whether we agree that the smartphone and new technology revolution have already occurred contend that only now is the field in the process of transformation, arguably nowhere are new technologies impacting scholarship more than in AA research. Whether or not AA capitalizing on emerging technologies can indeed solve intractable social science problems (Insel, ), it undoubtedly has the potential to transform the way we conduct research (Bagot et al., ).…”

“…The idea that we might better characterize these developmental fluctuations through new technologies and the help of multilevel statistics is enticing (Gelman, ). Recent advances in mobile technology only add to the attraction (Bagot et al., ). Capturing adolescents’ dynamic, real‐world microprocesses is no longer limited to digital watches, pagers, Palm Pilots, and Blackberries.…”

Ambulatory assessment (AA) offers one of the most exciting approaches for opening the dynamic “black box” of adolescents’ daily lives. In this introduction, we spotlight AA's surprisingly restricted market share within adolescent scholarship. We describe thorny challenges these intense methods can pose when conducting adolescent research “in situ” and underscore that capturing quality AA data means placing adolescents’ developmental stage at the forefront. The novel research reported in this special section speaks to these challenges and underscores the promise of AA for conducting developmentally salient science. The nine articles included in the section span multiple disciplines (Sociology, Psychology, Public Health) and reflect diverse viewpoints, approaches, and theories. All provide multiple novel best‐practice strategies for conducting AA scholarship with adolescents.
