Figures are estimated marginal means or adjusted predicted probabilities and significance testing adjusted for season of measurement, mean wear time and number of valid days.

Statistically significant difference between boys and girls, or across SIMD quintiles: *P<0.001

†Significance testing conducted as contrast between base category (most deprived) and all other quintiles

CPM, counts per minute; MVPA, moderate to vigorous physical activity; PA, physical activity; SIMD, Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation.
