Insights from a pilot investigating the impacts of shared E-scooter use on physical activity using a single-case design methodology

Rebecca L. Sanders et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of shared e-scooter use on physical activity (PA) levels and travel behavior. The findings indicate that biking and walking trips are more active than e-scooting or driving trips. E-scooter use largely replaces walking, biking, and e-biking trips, but when prohibited, most trips are taken by automobile. E-scooter users view them as an important transportation option. The study suggests that e-scooters reduce physically active travel, but their relationship with PA is influenced by transportation habits, options, and context.

GPS-based activity space exposure to greenness and walkability is associated with increased accelerometer-based physical activity

Oriol Marquet et al.

Summary: This study quantified the associations between environmental exposure and physical activity using GPS-based activity space measures and accelerometer-based physical activity measures. The results showed that higher walkability and greenness in activity spaces were associated with higher levels of physical activity.

Exploring user requirements and service features of e-micromobility in five European cities

Domokos Esztergar-Kiss et al.

Summary: This research aimed to understand the current travel behavior of individuals in five different locations related to e-micromobility. Most users primarily use e-micromobility for leisure trips, and are satisfied with its flexibility and speed but concerned about safety issues and incorrect parking. Comparing and analyzing the results among the chosen cities helped understand the strengths and weaknesses of e-micromobility and the potential of new mobility services.

Exploring the causal effects of bicycling for transportation on mental health

Liang Ma et al.

Summary: The study found that regular bicycling was negatively associated with psychological distress and positively associated with life satisfaction, while occasional bicycling was not significantly associated with mental health. Factors such as physical activity levels, physical health conditions, and neighborhood physical environment did not fully mediate the effects of utilitarian bicycling on mental wellbeing.

Assessment of Physical Activity in Adults Using Wrist Accelerometers

Fangyu Liu et al.

Summary: The health benefits of physical activity (PA) are widely recognized, and accelerometers have provided a more objective and continuous measurement of PA in free-living conditions. Wrist-worn accelerometers are popular due to their low participant burden, but their validity and reliability for adults are still under debate. Despite the rich information provided by accelerometer data, researchers have yet to fully utilize this data, and new methodological developments are emerging to address accelerometer limitations.

Contribution of park visits to daily physical activity levels among older adults: Evidence using GPS and accelerometery data

Guillem Vich et al.

Summary: The study found that visiting green spaces was positively associated with the daily physical activity levels of older adults, but not with their sedentary activity levels. The duration of each visit did not have a significant association with either physical activities or sedentary activities.
