*
Prevalence estimates were based on individuals with four or more valid days of accelerometer data.
a
Adherence definitions were based moderate-intensity criterion = 760 counts per minute.
b
Adherence definitions were based moderate-intensity criterion = 2,020 counts per minute.
#
Adherence, 30 min of moderate-intensity equivalent minutes of activity on 5 of 7 days, accumulating every minute above criterion and in modified 10 min bouts (8 of 10 min).
†
Adherence, ≥150 min of moderate-intensity equivalent minutes of activity per week, accumulating every minute above criterion and in modified 10-min bouts (8 of 10 min).
