Table 2. Regression analyses (β, 95% CI) examining the association between executive function (via PGNG) and follow-up sedentary behavior (outcome variable) .

1% Increase in correct target detection
Simple rule Repeating rule
Model 1 -2.8 (-6.3, .65) [P = 0.10] -2.3 (-4.5, -.06) [P = 0.04]
Model 2 -2.8 (-6.4, .7) [P = 0.11] -2.6 (-5.1, .09) [P = 0.04]
Model 3 -4.1 (-8.8, .65) [P = 0.08] -3.6 (-6.9, -.4) [P = 0.03]

Model 1, unadjusted; Model 2, adjusted for baseline sedentary behavior; Model 3, adjusted for baseline sedentary behavior, age, gender, body mass index and baseline MVPA.

Interpretation of results (Model 3, Repeating Rule): After adjustments, for every 1% increase in the number of correctly identified targets for the Repeating rule at the baseline assessment, participants engaged in 3.6 fewer minutes of sedentary behavior at the follow-up assessment.
