Objective Measures to Assess Active Commuting Physical Activity to School in Young People: A Systematic Review Protocol and Practical Considerations Campos Garzón, Pablo Sevil Serrano, Javier Barranco Ruiz, Yaira María Chillón Garzón, Palma Physical activity Exercise Cycling Walking Young Transport School This study was supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) (DEP2016-75598-R, MINECO/FEDER, UE). Also, P.C.-G. is supported by a 'FPU' Predoctoral Research Fellowship from the Spanish Ministry of Universities (grant number: FPU18/04251). Additionally, this study has been carried out thanks to funding from the University of Granada, Plan Propio de Investigacion 2016, Excellence actions: Units of Excellence; Unit of Excellence on Exercise and Health (UCEES), and by the Junta de Andalucia, Consejeria de Conocimiento, Investigacion y Universidades and European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), ref. SOMM17/6107/UGR. J.S.-S. is supported by a 'Juan de la Cierva' Postdoctoral Research Fellowship from the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry, and Competitiveness (grant number: FJC2018-038691-I). There are no systematic reviews that have identified the existing studies assessing active commuting physical activity (PA) to and from (to/from) school using objective measures, as well as the contribution of both walking and cycling to/from school to PA levels. To fill this gap in the literature, this systematic review will aim (a) to identify existing studies that assess active commuting PA to/from school with objective measures in young people and to examine the contribution of walking and cycling to/from school to PA levels, and (b) to propose an appropriate methodology and practical considerations to assess active commuting PA to/from school based on the studies identified. The review protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020162004). We will conduct a systematic search up to 2020 in five databases: PubMed, Web of Science, SPORTdiscuss, Cochrane Library, and National Transportation Library. Both the risk of bias and the quality of the identified studies will be evaluated through different instruments according to the design of each study. This systematic review will help to choose the most appropriate objective measures to assess active commuting PA to/from school and to promote walking and cycling to/from school to increase PA levels. 2020-11-09T13:17:28Z 2020-11-09T13:17:28Z 2020-08-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Campos-Garzón, P.; Sevil-Serrano, J.; Barranco-Ruíz, Y.; Chillón, P.
