Physical activity pattern descriptive statistics and between-subject effects for one-way repeated ANOVA (less than 100 steps/minutes) and a Friedman test (>100 steps/minutes).

∗A Friedman test was used as a non-parametric test alternative to the one-way repeated measure ANOVA because the assumption of normality distribution was violated for moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA).
