Mobility restrictions imposed to suppress transmission of COVID-19 can alter physical activity (PA) and sleep patterns that are important for health well-being. Characterization response heterogeneity their underlying associations may assist in stratifying the impact pandemic.We obtained wearable data covering baseline, incremental mobility restriction, lockdown periods from 1,824 city-dwelling, working adults aged 21-40 years, incorporating 206,381 nights 334,038 days PA. Distinct...
To determine the minimum number of nights required to reliably estimate weekly and monthly mean sleep duration variability measures from a consumer technology (CST) device (Fitbit).Data comprised 107 144 1041 working adults aged 21-40 years. Intraclass correlation (ICC) analyses were conducted on both time windows achieve ICC values 0.60 0.80, corresponding "good" "very good" reliability thresholds. These numbers then validated data collected 1-month 1-year later.Minimally, 3 5 obtain total...
Working from home (WFH) has become common place since the Covid-19 pandemic. Early studies observed population-level shifts in sleep patterns (later and longer sleep) physical activity (reduced PA), during confinement. Other found these changes to depend on proportion of days that individuals WFH (vs. work office; WFO). Here, we examined effects transition normality later stages pandemic (Aug 2021-Jan 2022).Two-hundred twenty-five working adults enrolled a public health study were followed...
Background Integration of mobile health data collection methods into cohort studies enables the intensive longitudinal information, which gives deeper insights individuals’ and lifestyle behavioral patterns over time, as compared to traditional with less frequent collection. These findings can then fill gaps that remain in understanding how various behaviors interact students graduate from university seek employment (student-to-work life transition), where inability adapt quickly a changing...
Ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) are short, repeated surveys designed to collect information on experiences in real-time, real-life contexts. Embedding periodic bursts of EMAs within cohort studies enables the study multiple timescales and could greatly enhance accuracy self-reported information. However, burden participants may be high should minimized optimize EMA response rates.We aimed evaluate effects design features rates.Embedded an ongoing (Health@NUS), 3 were implemented over...
Mobility restrictions imposed to suppress coronavirus transmission can alter physical activity (PA) and sleep patterns. Characterization of response heterogeneity their underlying reasons may assist in tailoring customized interventions. We obtained wearable data covering baseline, incremental movement restriction lockdown periods from 1824 city-dwelling, working adults aged 21 40 years, incorporating 206,381 nights 334,038 days PA. Four distinct rest rhythms (RARs) were identified using...

<title>Abstract</title> Introduction University is a crucial time when students face mounting pressures on their mental health and are establishing behaviours that may persist in later life. This study investigated the associations between movement dietary among university students. It further explored potential role of sex differences these associations. Methods cross-sectional used data (2020–2022) from Health@NUS prospective cohort study. Six behaviours—moderate-to-vigorous physical...
Abstract Study Objectives We evaluated the efficacy of a digitally delivered, small and scalable incentive-based intervention program on sleep wellbeing in short-sleeping, working adults. Methods A 22-week, parallel-group, randomized-controlled trial was conducted 21–40 y participants gifted with FitbitTM devices to measure for ≥2 years, as part broader healthy lifestyle study. About 225 short sleepers (141 males; average time-in-bed, TIB &lt; 7h) were randomly assigned 2:1 ratio...
