Ordinal logistic regression was used to assess associations of socio-demographic factors and neighbourhood social cohesion with distances adults would permit for children’s independent travel and outdoor play. Results: Parents and adults with lower education were less likely to permit greater distances for children’s independent travel (OR = 0.57 and OR = 0.59, respectively). Women, parents and adults with lower education were less likely to grant children greater distances for independent outdoor play (OR = 0.61, OR = 0.50 and OR = 0.60, respectively). In contrast, adults with higher perceptions of neighbourhood social cohesion were more likely to permit children greater distances for independent travel (OR = 1.05)and outdoor play (OR = 1.05). Adult age and area-level socio-economic disadvantage were not associated with distances adults would permit for independent travel and outdoor play. Conclusions: Women, parents (particularly those of younger children), adults with lower education and those who perceived neighbourhood social cohesion as being lower were less willing to let children independently travel further away from home. Interventions to increase children’s independent mobility may be more effective if targeted to these groups. In addition, increasing neighbourhood social cohesion may help increase adults’ willingness to grant children greater independent mobility.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:02:08 AEST ]]> Feasibility of using activity trackers and apps to increase physical activity in whole families: The Step it Up Family intervention https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51202 Thu 24 Aug 2023 15:00:08 AEST ]]> Effects of an activity tracker and app intervention to increase physical activity in whole families-the step it up family feasibility study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38646 Fri 03 Dec 2021 14:09:08 AEDT ]]>
