“…According to this standard, 85.2% of children and adolescents in China in this study reached the standard. In Western countries, including the United States ( 40 ), Australia ( 41 ), Brazil ( 42 ) and other countries ( 43 ), only one third of children met the daily screen time recommendation of <2 h in the past decade. In the background of the widespread use of mobile electronic devices such as cell phones and computers has become the main way of learning, communicating or playing for children and adolescents ( 43 ).…”

IntroductionTo understand the features of sedentary behavior of Chinese children and adolescents and its relationship with poor visual acuity, a self-administered “Questionnaire on Sedentary Behavior of Children and Adolescents” was used to survey 4,203 students in grades 4–12 in six administrative regions of China.Results(1) The average time spent in sedentary behaviors (SB) of Chinese children and adolescents was about 8.1 h per day, of which the academic sedentary time was the longest, accounting for 79.2% of total sedentary time. The total time spent on SB and the time spent on studying SB were more in the upper grades and less in screen SB and cultural leisure SB, respectively. There were significant sex differences in total SB time (p < 0.05) and weekend sedentary behaviors time (SB-WD) (p < 0.01) among Chinese children and adolescents, with girls being more likely to be higher than boys. There were also significant differences in sedentary time across different regions (p < 0.05), and the longest total sedentary time in East China. (2) Reduction parents' sedentary time and limitation of sedentary behaviors and the use of electronics among children and adolescents can effectively reduce sedentary time among Chinese children and adolescents. (3) Sedentary time was significantly higher in children and adolescents with poor vision than in those with normal vision (p < 0.01), and study SB and screen SB were important independent factors affecting vision. (4) Timing of breaks in SB can play a positive role in promoting vision health.ConclusionThere were significant grade, sex, and regional differences in the SB of Chinese children and adolescents, and sedentary time was strongly related to the prevalence of poor vision detection rate.

“…Despite public health concerns and the extensively documented health benefits of physical activity (PA), a large proportion of Chilean children do not meet the PA recommendations (Aguilar-Farias et al, 2018). Since most children spend a majority of their waking hours at school, this environment is appropriate for the implementation of preventive interventions, particularly those that include activities promoting PA (Naylor & McKay, 2009).…”

Background/Objective To test the effectiveness of an 8-week before-school physical activity program to reduce bullying victimization among a group of socially disadvantaged children in the Active-Start study. Method A non-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted in three public schools classified as highly vulnerable and located in a deprived area of Santiago (Chile). A total of 5 classes participated, totaling 170 fourth grade children. The intervention was delivered before starting the first school-class (8:00–8:30 a.m.). The program lasted for 8 weeks. Primary outcome measurement on bullying victimization was assessed by the CUBE questionnaire at baseline and post-intervention. Results There was a statistically significant reduction in the probability of suffering physical bullying (OR= 0.18, 95% CI, 0.04-0.82; p = .027) and verbal bullying (OR=0.13, 95% CI, 0.02-0.97; p = .046) after the 8-week program. Conclusions Participation in an 8-week before-school physical activity intervention implemented in schools located in a disadvantaged district in Santiago (Chile) resulted in lower levels of bullying victimization among study participants. The Active-Start program may be a feasible and potentially scalable intervention option to improve the climate and pro-sociality environment at schools.

“…O comportamento sedentário atinge cerca de 60% dos adolescentes, (3,5) e tem sido evidenciado como um risco para várias alterações orgânicas durante o período da adolescência, como doenças crônicas não transmissíveis, a exemplo da obesidade, diabetes mellitus e doenças cardiovasculares. (6) O estilo de vida ocioso dessa população vem aumentando com uso e auxílio cada vez maior das tecnologias (computador, smartphones, tablets), reduzindo os momentos de lazer com práticas de atividades físicas de forma significativa.…”
