Key facts

• PhenX - sitting - sedentary behavior - adolescent protocol 150602
• These questions provide an estimate of how many hours and/or minutes an adolescent spends doing sedentary activities each day before and after school during a typical school week (including the weekend). The child records the time spent doing these activities each day. The questionnaire is usually administered to a classroom of children in a school setting. The Working Group feels that this protocol can be completed with children in a one-on-one setting and that minimal changes to the instructions would be necessary. Originally, the questionnaire was administered to adolescents in Australia and a few characteristics of the questionnaire are more applicable to Australia than the United States (e.g., reference to Saturday School).
