Association of Parkland Proximity with Neighborhood and Park-based Physical Activity: Variations by Gender and Age

Kaczynski, Andrew T., Potwarka, Luke R., Smale, Bryan J. A., Havitz, Mark E.·2009·Leisure Sciences

Abstract

This study examined how the number and total size of neighborhood parks within 1 kilometer (km) of participants' homes, as well as distance to the closest park, were associated with moderate-to-strenuous physical activity (MSPA) in three contexts: total, neighborhood-based, and park-based. Data were collected from 384 adults in a Canadian city. Each additional hectare of park area within 1 km increased the odds of participating in 150 or more minutes of total MSPA by 2% and each additional park increased the odds of participating in 150 or more minutes of neighborhood-based MSPA by 17% (p < .05). Living near more parks and parkland showed more positive relationships with activity among women than men, and among younger (18 to 34 years) and older (55+ years) adults.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
