Models expressed per 1 SD of neighborhood cohesion (3.5 units), neighborhood resources (1.4 units), neighborhood poverty (10.6%), or racial segregation (2.6 units). Change in accelerometer-based activity calculated as year 30 minus year 20. Model 1 adjusted for baseline (year 20) center, age, race, sex, education, employment status, family income, the baseline activity of interest (i.e. Δsedentary model adjusted for baseline sedentary time), and 10-year change in total accelerometer wear time. Model 2 additionally adjusted for smoking status, alcohol consumption, and depressive symptoms.
