Based on self-report measures, DDR may have increased PA levels in obese and overweight children. However, we are led to question the validity of these results because analyses based on objective measures do not confirm them. Accelerometer results indicate that although DDR did not boost PA, it may have helped to slow the decline in moderate to vigorous PA over time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
