“…The existing literature on children's physical activity broadly conclude that large proportions of children and youth are spending their daily time being sedentary and are failing to meet the recommended levels of daily physical activity ( Carson et al, 2017 ; Cooper et al, 2003 ; Copperman and Bhat, 2010 ; Gao et al, 2017 ; Goodman et al, 2011 ; Oliver et al, 2015 ; Raux et al, 2016 ; Raux et al, 2016 , 2016 ; Stone et al, 2012 ). A smaller body of research has more directly examined patterns of daily activity and/or movement behaviours, sometimes referred to as the ‘activity lifestyles' among children ( Mitra et al, 2017 ; Nelson et al, 2005 ; Seghers and Rutten, 2010 ; Voulgaris et al, 2016 ).…”

This paper explores patterns of increased/ decreased physical activity, sedentary and sleep behaviours among Canadian children and youth aged 5-17 years during the COVID-19 pandemic, and examines how these changes are associated with the built environment near residential locations. A cluster analysis identified two groups who were primarily distinguished by the changes in outdoor activities. Compliance to 24-hour movement guidelines was low among both groups. For children, houses (versus apartments) was correlated with increased outdoor activities; proximity to major roads was a barrier. For youth, low dwelling density, and access to parks in high-density neighbourhoods, increased the odds of increased outdoor activities during the pandemic. Our findings can inform future urban and health crisis planning practices by providing new insights into the desirable public health messaging and characteristics of healthy and resilient communities.

“…They validated these findings by using a diary study. A common timeframe often used for diary studies is one week [2,24]. Similarly, the research presented here has used a one week -diary study to investigate the spectrum and frequency of frustrating driving situations, and a focus group study to identify these situations in-depth and with a focus on long-term remembered frustrating situations.…”

Introduction Designing emotion-aware systems has become a manageable aim through recent developments in computer vision and machine learning. In the context of driver behaviour, especially negative emotions like frustration have shifted into the focus of major car manufacturers. Recognition and mitigation of the same could lead to safer roads in manual and more comfort in automated driving. While frustration recognition and also general mitigation methods have been previously researched, the knowledge of reasons for frustration is necessary to offer targeted solutions for frustration mitigation. However, up to the present day, systematic investigations about reasons for frustration behind the wheel are lacking. Methods Therefore, in this work a combination of diary study and user focus groups was employed to shed light on reasons why humans become frustrated during driving. In addition, participants of the focus groups were asked for their usual coping methods with frustrating situations. Results It was revealed that the main reasons for frustration in driving are related to traffic, in-car reasons, self-inflicted causes, and weather. Coping strategies that drivers use in everyday life include cursing, distraction by media and thinking about something else, amongst others. This knowledge will help to design a frustration-aware system that monitors the driver’s environment according to the spectrum of frustration causes found in the research presented here.

“…Given that fewer services are available on weekends, this might increase the capacity for familiarity by limiting temporal dispersion of passengers across services. Second, given differences in routine activities and patterns of discretionary compared to obligatory activities individuals engage in on weekdays compared to weekend days, we hypothesized that there would be important differences in the presence and implications of familiar strangers at stations during each time period (Raux, Ma, and Cornelis 2016).…”

H€ agerstrand proposed that individuals' daily mobility is constrained to a particular time-space path by capability, coupling, and authority requirements. This tethering of routine activities to particular places at scheduled times facilitates repetitive bundling of individuals at certain nodes. Associations emerging from repeated, cursory encounters between individuals have been coined familiar strangers. "Familiar strangers" is a unique social phenomenon that emerges where individuals experience repeated visual encounters but never verbally interact. Scholarship suggests that increased familiarity among individuals might incur social benefits at places by reducing individual anonymity and enhancing the moral obligation to obey behavioral norms, which in turn could have a crime protection effect. In this study we spatially and temporally integrate a large smart card data set with a database of crime incidents along with census information to examine the relationship between bus stops with varying concentrations of familiar strangers and the occurrence of three crime types (theft, drug, and nuisance offenses). The findings demonstrate the potential for familiar strangers to provide crime guardianship at bus stops and also highlight the influence of surrounding land use and neighborhood sociodemographic environment on crime risk.
