Adolescence and transition into adulthood are periods shaping life-long mental health, cardiometabolic risk, inequalities. However, they poorly studied understood. By extending expanding the Born in Bradford (BiB) cohort study through this period using innovative, co-produced approaches to collect analyse data, we aim understand better interplay of factors that influence health wellbeing, inform/evaluate interventions improve them reduce
Born in Bradford (BiB) is a prospective multi-ethnic pregnancy and birth cohort study that was established to examine determinants of health development during childhood and, subsequently, adult life deprived population the north England. Between 2007 2010, BiB recruited 12,453 women who experienced 13,776 pregnancies 13,858 births, along with 3353 their partners. Forty five percent are Pakistani origin. Now children at primary school, first full follow-up taking place. The aims investigate...
Objectives To explore clinically important increases in depression/anxiety from before to during the first UK COVID-19 lockdown and factors related this change, with a particular focus on ethnic differences. Design Pre-COVID-19 surveys nested within two longitudinal Born Bradford cohort studies. Participants 1860 mothers child aged 0–5 or 9–13, 48% Pakistani heritage.

Abstract Background In England, the onset of COVID-19 and a rapidly increasing infection rate resulted in lockdown (March-June 2020) which placed strict restrictions on movement public, including children. Using data collected from children living multi-ethnic city with high levels deprivation, this study aimed to: (1) report children’s self-reported physical activity (PA) during first UK identify associated factors; (2) examine changes PA prior to lockdown.

<ns3:p>Background Adolescence is a critical period of development which paves the way for longer term health trajectories and lifestyles. Understanding variety factors influence adolescent crucial to developing interventions services have potential across life-course. Collecting representative, longitudinal data with adolescents at scale difficult. Secondary school settings offer an excellent opportunity collect such adolescents, however, there are inherent challenges in working these...
Abstract How do animals and insects use visual information to move through the world successfully? Optic flow, pattern of motion at eye, is a powerful source about self-motion. Insects humans are sensitive global optic flow try maintain symmetry when flying or walking. The environments encounter, however, often contain demarcated paths that constrain future trajectories (e.g., roads), steering has been successfully modeled using only road edge information. Here we examine whether asymmetries...
Bradford is multi-ethnic and one of the most deprived districts in United Kingdom where around a quarter children live low-income families. Born (BiB) has followed lives 13,776 born district between 2007 2011. Children birth cohort are now entering adolescence, next phase research - Age Wonder (AoW) will be whole city capturing experiences 30,000 adolescents progressing into young adulthood. This protocol focuses on component AoW programme: qualitative longitudinal (QLR). The study gather...
Co-production of research with communities and stakeholders is recognised as best practice, but despite this, transparent reporting reflective accounts on co-producing lacking. Born in Bradford Age Wonder (AoW) a large longitudinal health project, following the trajectories up to 30,000 young people across district; moreover, AoW has been entirely co-produced teachers, parents, people. This paper describes co-production project shares general reflections from peer researchers involved AoW. A...
Interceptive timing is a fundamental ability underpinning numerous actions (e.g., ball catching), but its development and relationship with other cognitive functions remain poorly understood. Piaget suggested that children need to learn the physical rules govern their environment before they can represent abstract concepts such as number time. Thus, learning how objects move in space time may underpin of related representations (i.e., mathematics). To test this hypothesis, we captured...
Background: Cognitive ability and sensorimotor function are crucial aspects of children's development, associated with physical mental health outcomes educational attainment. This paper describes cross-sectional cognitive data collected on over 15,000 children aged 7-10 years, as part the Born in Bradford (BiB) longitudinal birth-cohort study. Methodological details large-scale collection process described, along initial analyses involving relationship between cognition/sensorimotor age task...

<ns4:p>The Born in Bradford (BiB) cohort of 13,776 children born between 2007-2011 and their parents provides a rich data resource for researchers exploring protective risk factors influencing long-term developmental health outcomes. Educational attainment is critical factor related to later health. Literacy communication, fine motor skills social emotional are key ‘early’ predictors educational can be used identify need additional support. We describe our BiB ‘Starting School’ collection...

Motor deficits are linked to a range of negative physical, social and academic consequences. Haptic robotic interventions, based on the principles sensorimotor learning, have been shown previously help children with motor problems learn new movements. We therefore examined whether training benefits system would generalise standardised test 'pen-skills', assessed using objective kinematic measures [via Clinical Kinematic Assessment Tool, CKAT]. A counterbalanced, cross-over design was used in...
Working memory is a limited capacity system that stores and processes information over short time periods essential for learning new information. Some studies have investigated the associations between socioeconomic position working memory, however none examined this across potentially dissociable aspects of memory. Further, there are very few about children's differences within different ethnic groups. Therefore, need to understand potential position, ethnicity, We (n = 15,154) by group,...
