Background

  • Prevalent inactivity level among children - global health issue1-2
  • Novel activity pattern metrics also can lead to health benefits4-7

▪ Sporadic (i.e., intermittent) moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) ▪ Sedentary breaks

  • Variations in affect may impact everyday activity patterns3

Whether children’s within-person mean and variability in momentary affect predict daily activity pattern metrics? Potential moderation effects?

Mothers’ and Their Children’s Health (MATCH) Study

▪ 6-wave EMA cohort study across 3 years

  • 192 Children

▪ Age: 8-14 (SD=1.25) ▪ 51% female ▪ 50% Hispanic

Funding: R01HL119255 (Dunton, PI)

Children’s EMA data collection protocol EMA design for children:

▪ 3 random prompts on weekdays ▪ 7 random prompts on weekend days

EMA platform:

▪ A customized Android app

At least 60 minutes between 2 consecutive prompts

8:00 00 AM AM 10:00 :00 PM PM 11:29 AM 12:36 PM 2:01 PM 4:25 PM 7:33 PM 8:06 AM 5:55 PM

Random prompt for children on a weekend day

EMA items measuring children’s momentary affect

Positive affect items: ▪ Happy ▪ Joyful Negative affect items: ▪ Mad ▪ Sad ▪ Stressed

  • Averaged scores created for

positive and negative affect

On a 4-point Response Scale

(Ebesutani et al., 2012)

Some children have relatively more erratic affect than others

  • Novel statistical software that allows for the subject-level random

effects of time-varying variables to influence subject-level outcomes

  • Two-stage data analysis approach:

▪ Stage 1: Mixed Effects Location Scale Model ▪ Estimate subject-level mean and variation in affect ▪ Stage 2: Multiple Linear Regression Model ▪ Predict mean daily sporadic MVPA and sedentary breaks

Applying MIXWILD Program

MIXed models With Intensive Longitudinal Data

Hedeker and Nordgren (2013)

Stage 1 – Mixed-effects location scale (Mixregls) model

Modeling Momentary Positive / Negative Affect (Level-1 variable)

Random intercept (mean)

  • f positive / negative affect

Random scale (variability)

  • f positive / negative affect

Stage 2 – Multiple linear regression model

Predicting Daily Averaged Activity Pattern Metrics (Level-2 variable)

slide-12
SLIDE 12
  • Children with similar levels of variations in momentary affect

may have different daily activity patterns ▪ Depending on demographics or mean levels of affect

  • Add interaction terms in the Stage 2 model

(variability in positive affect)

Sex and mean levels of positive affect moderate the relation between positive affect variability and sporadic MVPA events

(variability in positive affect) (mean positive affect)

slide-18
SLIDE 18
  • High mean levels and more consistency in momentary positive affect

were associated with more sporadic MVPA events in children.

  • Sex moderated the relation between positive affect variability &

sporadic MVPA : ▪ Girls: more consistency in positive affect

  • > more sporadic MVPA
  • More variability in negative affect predicted more sporadic MVPA

events in children.

  • Mean levels and variability in momentary affect (both positive and

negative) did not predict sedentary breaks.

  • These preliminary results should be interpreted with caution.

  • Population-based data are needed
  • Examining novel features of both affect and device-based

activity data in EMA studies may advance tailored interventions to promote healthier behavioral patterns among children

  • MixWILD can be used to ask new research questions in intensive

longitudinal studies ▪ The subject-level random effects -> health outcomes

  • Individuals’ mean levels and variability in time-varying variables (i.e.,

affect) should be considered as meaningful dimensions in theories of physical activity motivation
