Notes: All estimates control for time-in-attendance and clustering at the child and site level.

Boldface indicates statistical significance (p<0.05).

a

Model controlled for age, BMI, and race/ethnicity.

b

Two SDCs operated on a military base, and one in a strip mall

PA, physical activity; MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; min/d, minutes per day; SDCs, summer day camps
