“…Our finding appears to be substantially younger, however, than Kalish, Banco, Burke, and Lapidus (2010) where only 30% of Connecticut parents thought a girl age 10-14years could play outside by herself, and 33% thought a boy in this age range could play outside alone. Our results also did not show significant differences in average age between boys and girls in any of the four activities asked of parents.…”

Problem-This study describes adult opinions about child supervision during various activities.Methods-Data come from a survey of U.S. adults. Respondents were asked the minimum age a child could safely: stay home alone; bathe alone; or ride a bike alone. Respondents with children were asked if their child had ever been allowed to: play outside alone; play in a room at home for more than 10minutes alone; bathe with another child; or bathe alone.Results-The mean age that adults believed a child could be home alone was 13.0years (95% CI=12.9-13.1), bathe alone was 7.5years (95% CI=7.4-7.6), or bike alone was 10.1years (95%

“…Among Asian and Asian‐Pacific Islander Americans, environmental physical activity supports, including greenspace, were the highest predictor of activity (Bungum, Landers, Azzarelli, & Moonie, ; odds ratio [ OR ] = 1.52, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.06–2.17, N = 263 subjects). Thus far, the use of instruments and measurement of green space have been inconsistent in these studies, and there has been only a peripheral focus on green space ( Table ; Bungum et al., ; Esteban‐Cornejo et al., ; Jongeneel‐Grimen et al., ; Kalish et al., ; Leslie, Cerin, & Kremer, ; Shinew, Stodolska, Roman, & Yahner, ).…”

This article provides a summary of research related to green space, violence in communities, perception of safety, and violent crime in those communities. It identifies gaps in our knowledge where future research is needed. Nurses have the opportunity to lead the development, implementation, and evaluation of evidence-based interventions and policies addressing the inequality of quality and quantity of green space in the built and natural environment and related co-benefits.

This study examined the correspondence between children's indoor and outdoor play in a preschool environment to investigate whether the children maintained a tendency to engage in a particular type of play irrespective of the environment, or whether they changed the type of play according to the environment. Play behaviours of 18 three-year-old and 20 five-year-old children were observed in both settings in an urban preschool in Japan. Various characteristics of play were examined based on cognitive play categories, social play categories, and types of objects used. The results indicate that children do not maintain fixed play behaviour without taking into consideration the play settings: their play differed greatly in accordance with the play setting. Not every child showed the same differences in play corresponding to differences in the setting. However, for each age group there was a qualitative difference based on the setting. For the threeyear-olds, the 'subject of interest' changed between settings, whereas for the five-year-olds, the 'participation in society' changed related to the setting (indoor or outdoor). The 'relation with the environment' was greater for both age groups in the outdoor setting. There were no significant sex differences.
