Summary

The aims of this study are as follows:

* The primary aim is to investigate the relationship between changes in screen media use with changes in non-sedentary time (time, min/day, spent in activities other than lying and sitting) during leisure (outside nursery) from baseline to 18-month follow-up.
* The secondary aim is to investigate the relationship between changes in screen media use and time (min/day) spent in specific daily activities (lying, sitting, moving, standing, walking, and running) and changes in moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity during leisure.

Conditions

  • Screen Time

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Leisure screen time

Questionnaire-based assessment of typical amount of time per week spent using screen-based media devices during leisure, assessed at two time points. Continuously scaled in main analyses; a difference is computed (18-month follow-up value minus baseline value). Additionally, screen time amount at the two time points will be scaled categorically, according to being classified as low or high according to WHO criteria for preschool children (Low (recommended): \<=1 hour/day, high: \>1 hour/day): High-high, high-low, low-high, and low-low.
