A more favourable ASI score was associated with improved symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, QOL-mental and of energy and fatigue (all p < 0.05). The intervention effects on symptoms of depression ([AB; 95%CI] -0.31; - 0.60,-0.11), anxiety (- 0.11; - 0.27,-0.01), stress (- 0.37; - 0.65,-0.174), QOL-mental (0.53; 0.22, 1.01) and ratings of energy and fatigue (0.85; 0.33, 1.63) were mediated by ASI. At 6 months the magnitude of association was larger although the overall pattern of results remained similar. Conclusions: Improvements in the overall physical activity and sleep behaviours of adults partially mediated the intervention effects on mental health and quality of life outcomes. This highlights the potential benefit of improving the overall pattern of physical activity and sleep on these outcomes.

Higher levels of physical activity and being aged 51 years or older were negatively associated with frequent insufficient sleep (P < .05). Conclusions: The sociodemographic and behavioral characteristics associated with frequent perceived insufficient sleep can be used to guide the development of future interventions to reduce sleep insufficiency.]]> Tue 21 Mar 2023 16:28:08 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37700 Tue 16 Mar 2021 17:51:59 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37736 Tue 08 Aug 2023 10:33:20 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38652 Thu 09 Dec 2021 14:06:15 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37939 60%), attendance (80%), retention (≥85%), and program acceptability (≥4 out of 5). Acceptability of data collection procedures, research team program/resource management, home-program compliance, and preliminary intervention outcomes were also assessed. Results: Feasibility benchmarks were surpassed for recruitment (24 dyads), eligibility rate (61.5%), attendance (89%), retention (100%), and program acceptability (4.6 out of 5). Data collection procedures were acceptable. Challenges included mothers reporting their own dietary intake rather than their child’s, children moving during body composition measurement, and resetting pedometers. Resource and program management were excellent. Most families met home-program requirements (83%). Preliminary intervention outcomes were encouraging for fathers and children. Conclusion: Program feasibility was demonstrated by excellent recruitment, attendance, acceptability, retention, program administration, and promising preliminary intervention outcomes. A few data collection difficulties were identified. A larger scale efficacy trial is warranted.]]> Thu 08 Jul 2021 16:41:31 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35722 Thu 07 Nov 2019 09:43:54 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42977 Mon 04 Sep 2023 16:11:57 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47188 d = 0.48, 95% CI: -2.26, -0.33, p = 0.009) and sleep hygiene (d = 0.40, 95% CI: -3.10, -0.19, p = 0.027). Differences in MVPA were not significant (d = 0.24, 95% CI: -35.53, 254.67, p = 0.139). Changes in MVPA were mediated by self-efficacy, perceived capability, environment, social support, intentions and planning, some of which showed inconsistent mediation (suppression). None of the hypothesised psychosocial factors mediated sleep outcomes. Changes in sleep hygiene mediated changes in sleep quality. Conclusions: Several psychosocial factors mediated changes in physical activity but not in sleep outcomes. Mediation effects of sleep hygiene on sleep quality highlight the importance of providing evidence-based strategies to improve sleep quality.]]> Fri 30 Jun 2023 10:17:36 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38991 Healthy Youngsters, Healthy Dads, on change in dietary intake in fathers and their preschool-aged children post-intervention (10 weeks) and at 9 months follow-up compared to a waitlist control group and (ii) investigate associations in father-child dietary intakes. Methods: Linear mixed models estimated group-by-time effects for all dietary outcomes, measured by food frequency questionnaires. Cohen's d determined effect sizes, while correlation tests determined associations in father-child dietary intakes. Results: For children, medium group-by-time effects sizes were identified at 10 weeks for sodium intake (d = 0.38) and percentage energy from core foods (d = 0.43), energy-dense, nutrient-poor (EDNP) foods (d = 0.43) and prepacked snacks (d = 0.45). These findings were sustained at 9 months follow-up. For fathers, medium to large, group-by-time effect sizes were identified at 10 weeks for energy intake (d = 0.55), sodium intake (d = 0.64) and percentage energy from core foods (d = 0.49), EDNP foods (d = 0.49), and confectionary (d = 0.36). For all of these dietary variables, except sodium, effects were sustained at 9 months. Moderate to strong associations existed in father-child dietary intakes for some of the dietary variables. Conclusions: Although further research is required, this study provides preliminary support for targeting fathers as agents of change to improve dietary intakes in their preschool-aged children.]]> Fri 25 Mar 2022 15:52:33 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40335 Fri 22 Jul 2022 14:44:35 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49411 Fri 12 May 2023 14:55:02 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51525 Fri 08 Sep 2023 12:11:13 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37431 Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:32:45 AEDT ]]>
