“…Only one study measured subjective and objective PA levels over the same time period . Six studies used objective methods with five of these studies including a comparison with an age appropriate non‐diabetic sample . Two objective methods of measurement were used to assess PA and SB: accelerometers and pedometers.…”

“…Studies which objectively measure PA report variable outcomes including: average daily step count (range 4901–5659 steps/day); Actigraph accelerometer count (140 302 to 155 520); minutes of moderate to vigorous PA (range 24.2–34 minutes/day); percentage meeting 7100 steps/day (29.7%); percentage of waking day spent stepping (10.7%) . All five studies which used objective methods of measurement and included a comparison group report people with T2D to be less active than age comparable people without diabetes . Studies which subjectively measured PA report variable outcomes even when using the same method of measurement.…”

Regular physical activity and low levels of prolonged sedentary behaviour are important lifestyle recommendations for the management of type 2 diabetes. This systematic review collates and summarises published research reporting on physical activity and sedentary behaviour of adults with type 2 diabetes. Systematic searches with three databases were conducted (Medline; PubMed; SportDiscus). Intervention studies were excluded. Studies were eligible if they: (i) were published in English; (ii) were published between 1997 and January 2017; and (iii) objectively and/or subjectively measured physical activity and/or sedentary behaviour in adults with type 2 diabetes. Two reviewers independently cross‐checked studies, conducted a quality assessment and extracted data. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and a narrative synthesis. The search identified 349 studies; 29 eligible studies were included. All studies measured physical activity and 15 studies measured sedentary behaviour. Twenty studies used subjective methods, six used objective methods and three used both subjective and objective methods. Most studies report low levels of physical activity and high levels of sedentary behaviour in adults with type 2 diabetes and note adults with type 2 diabetes to be less active and more sedentary than those without type 2 diabetes. Regardless of measurement method or study location, adults with type 2 diabetes report low levels of physical activity and high levels of sedentary behaviour and are less active and more sedentary than those without type 2 diabetes. There is a need for large‐scale interventions which support active lifestyles to be implemented into diabetes care. Copyright © 2018 John Wiley & Sons.

“…Furthermore, there is also research that indicates adults residing in rural regions suffer disparities in HRQOL. 6 As well, sex differences have been seen in both the PA 7,8 and HRQOL 9,10 literature, however, evidence of sex differences in the PA and HRQOL relationship is sparse. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between PIA and HRQOL in rural adults and examine the extent to which sex differences exist in this relationship.…”

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between physical inactivity (PIA) and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in rural adults and examine the extent to which sex differences exist in this relationship. Methods: A total of 5617 adults 18 years of age and older who indicated residing in a rural county was included in this analysis. PIA status was assessed by questions regarding recreational physical activity during the previous month. Five HRQOL measures (physical health, mental health, inactivity health, general health, & unhealthy days) were used as primary outcome variables. PIA and HRQOL prevalence estimates were computed with 95% CIs. Multiple logistic regression was used to obtain odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs adjusted for age, ethnicity, and income. Results: Physically inactive rural adults were significantly more likely to report poor HRQOL in all overall crude models with ORs ranging from 1.59 to 2.16. Additionally, sex-by-PIA interactions were significant across all crude HRQOL models with ORs ranging from 2.27 to 3.08 and 1.56 to 2.42 for women and men, respectively. Sex differences were maintained in fully adjusted models, except for mental health and inactivity health with ORs ranging from 1.80 to 2.58 and 1.41 to 1.79 for women and men, respectively. Conclusion: Results from this study show that PIA is a strong predictor of poor HRQOL even after controlling for confounding variables. Furthermore, physically inactive rural women appear more likely to report poor levels of HRQOL than physically inactive rural men.

“…Many studies on physical activity of older adults did not include an older Latino population, but reported key moderating variables (Farias et al, 2017;Kelly, Edney, Moran, Srikanth, & Callisaya, 2016;Murphy, Niemiec, Lyden, & Kratz, 2016;Stephan, Sutin, & Terracciano, 2014). A moderating variable, either quantitative (e.g., satisfaction level) or qualitative (e.g., gender, race), "aff ects the direction and/or strength of the relation between an independent or predictor variable and a dependent or criterion variable" (Baron & Kenny, 1986, p. 1174.…”

Physical Activity and Positive Psychological Well-Being Attributes Among U.S. Latino Older Adults

Lack of physical activity is particularly problematic among U.S. Latino older adults. There is substantial evidence linking physical activity and well-being. However, associations between physical activity and positive psychological well-being among this population have never been studied or measured. Physical activity was compared to five positive psychological well-being measures based on the PERMA model. Secondary data analysis was completed on a sample of 68 Latino American individuals, age 60 and older, compared to 72 non-Hispanic White older adults. Overall, physical activity was positively associated with positive psychological well-being despite race. Pain, functional limitations, and physical restrictions did not moderate the relationship between physical activity and positive psychological well-being among Latino and non-Hispanic White older adults. Further research is needed to clarify whether physical activity and psychological well-being are perceived similarly or differently within various cultures.
