MVPA (METS ≥ 4.0) recorded via the Sensewear Armband Mini (SWA). Group differences at baseline and follow-up were determined using a mixed model that controlled for clustering by classroom as well as group differences in weight status and sex. Group differences in changes from baseline to follow-up were determined using a mixed model that controlled for clustering by classroom as well as group differences in baseline values, weight status, and sex. |
