“…All used self-reported PA as a dependent variable with the exception of Rhodes et al [45] who assessed MVPA with accelerometry. Six studies examined women exclusively [36,40,45,52,79,107], three studies had exclusive assessments of men [45,52,79], and two studies contained an amalgam of men and women under ''parents'' [66,78].
