Global Matrix 3.0 Physical Activity Report Card Grades for Children and Youth: Results and Analysis From 49 Countries
Open accessAbstract
Background : Accumulating sufficient moderate to vigorous physical activity is recognized as a key determinant of physical, physiological, developmental, mental, cognitive, and social health among children and youth (aged 5–17 y). The Global Matrix 3.0 of Report Card grades on physical activity was developed to achieve a better understanding of the global variation in child and youth physical activity and associated supports. Methods : Work groups from 49 countries followed harmonized procedures to develop their Report Cards by grading 10 common indicators using the best available data. The participating countries were divided into 3 categories using the United Nations’ human development index (HDI) classification (low or medium, high, and very high HDI). Results : A total of 490 grades, including 369 letter grades and 121 incomplete grades, were assigned by the 49 work groups. Overall, an average grade of “C-,” “D+,” and “C-” was obtained for the low and medium HDI countries, high HDI countries, and very high HDI countries, respectively. Conclusions : The present study provides rich new evidence showing that the situation regarding the physical activity of children and youth is a concern worldwide. Strategic public investments to implement effective interventions to increase physical activity opportunities are needed.

TL;DR
Global Matrix 3.0 compiled harmonized physical activity Report Card grades for children and youth from 49 countries, assigning 490 grades across 10 common indicators. Overall grades were low (overall average C-), with concerning physical activity and sedentary behavior levels worldwide and variation by HDI grouping.
Key findings
- A total of 490 grades were assigned: 369 letter grades and 121 incomplete (“INC”) grades. Overall average grade was “C-”; by HDI category, averages were “C-” for low/medium HDI countries, “D+” for high HDI countries, and “C-” for very high HDI countries. Behavioral indicators averaged “C-” and sources of influence indicators averaged “C.”
- Indicator averages ranged from “D” for Overall Physical Activity to “C” for Organized Sport and Physical Activity, Active Transportation, School, Community and Environment, and Government; Active Play, Sedentary Behaviors, and Family and Peers averaged “D+,” and Physical Fitness averaged “C-.” Overall Physical Activity was the lowest-graded indicator; Slovenia was the only country with an “A-” for Overall Physical Activity, while most other countries had “D-F” grades (n = 38).
- Rankings showed Slovenia first and China 49th for overall score; Nepal first and Estonia last for behavioral score; Slovenia first and Venezuela last for sources of influence score.
- Correlational analyses found Overall Physical Activity negatively associated with HDI (r = -.30, P < .05) and gross national income per capita (r = -.33, P < .05); Community and Environment was positively associated with HDI (r = .73, P < .001) and GNI per capita (r = .80, P < .001); School was positively associated with HDI (r = .53, P < .001) and negatively with the Gini index (r = -.66, P < .001).
Methods
- Work groups from 49 countries/regions followed harmonized procedures to grade 10 common indicators using the best available data; countries were divided by United Nations HDI classification into low/medium (9), high (10), and very high (30) HDI groups.
- Each country work group gathered published and unpublished evidence, national surveys, official reports, and expert opinion for school-aged children and youth (∼5-17 y); draft grades and rationales were audited by AHKGA Executive Committee members.
- Letter grades were converted to interval values, “INC” grades were treated as missing, and descriptive statistics, overall/behavioral/sources-of-influence scores, and Spearman rank correlations were calculated in R version 3.4.1.
Limitations
- The paper states a major limitation was missing data: 121 “INC” grades of 490 total, plus great variability across countries in benchmarks, measurement instruments, age range, sample size, quality, and quantity of data; translating prevalence data into letter grades also lost information, so comparisons and correlations should be interpreted with caution.
- The paper states the sample was not globally representative: most countries worldwide were missing, including South Pacific island nations, Central Asia, and North Africa; children and youth with disabilities were not explicitly included, and disparities by gender, socioeconomic status, or urban versus rural dwelling were not analyzed.
- The paper states Overall Physical Activity was not statistically related to 8 other indicators except a positive moderate correlation with Sedentary Behaviors, possibly due to limitations, unmeasured physical activity dose, absence of choice, child labor, and cultural values not evaluated; evident from the text, the grades rely on available surveillance data and expert opinion rather than standardized primary measurement, and the analyses are cross-sectional and correlational.

“The low behavioral grades that were reported broadly in the Global Matrix 3.0 suggest that the government's efforts and physical activity policies are not reflected in an increase in the prevalence of MVPA among children and youth, and/or that there is an implementation gap between the strategy level (source of influence indicators) and individual level (behavioral indicators).”

In the paper
“The available evidence from this indicator suggests that the characteristics of the built environment potentially influencing the physical activity of children and youth are already favorable in the very high HDI countries, and that an increase of the grades for this indicator is expected with the further development of low, medium, and high HDI countries.”

No valid, internationally recognized instrument currently exists to measure how family and friends influence children's and youth's physical activity.

A large number of built-environment characteristics could potentially influence children's and youth's physical activity.

There is no official standardized method for evaluating government influence on physical activity.
“As there is no official standardized method to evaluate this influence, the recommended benchmark for this indicator focused on evidence of leadership and commitment, allocated funds and resources, and demonstrated progress for the promotion of physical activity opportunities for all children and youth (Table 1).”

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-08, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-08 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
