DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY + SEDENTARY BEHAVIOUR + SLEEP [39] 1/1 study found that meeting all three recommendations was associated with significantly lower odds of depression among adolescents compared with meeting none, one, or any combinations of two recommendations among adolescents. However, among children, meeting the screen time recommendation alone, both the screen time and sleep duration recommendation, or both the physical activity and sleep duration recommendations was associated with lower odds of depression than meeting none or all three guidelines. | VERY LOW |
