Association between time of sunset and total daily activity. CI = confidence interval, cpm = counts per minute. Analysis based on 158,784 measurement days from 23,188 children from 15 studies in 9 countries. Minimally-adjusted analyses adjust for age, sex and study population; additionally-adjusted analyses also include day of the week, weight status and (most importantly) the six weather covariates. Hour of sunset is rounded down, e.g. ‘18’ covers ‘18:00–18:59’, and the reference group is sunset before 17:00.
