坐着的时间是一个公共健康问题。本研究探讨了484名香港老年人的客观测量的邻里环境属性与非交通坐着的时间和机动交通的关联。鼓励步行的社区属性可以帮助老年人用轻到中等强度的活动（如在社区周围散步或步行往返于社区目的地）取代在家和机动交通工具上的一些静坐时间。因此，我们假设发现与步行相关的环境属性将显示与非交通坐着时间和机动交通相反的步行相关性。横截面。香港，一个超密集的城市环境。484名65岁以上的华裔香港居民从四间香港长者健康中心的会员名单中招募，这些中心代表按社会经济地位分层的低和高交通相关步行能力的集水区（回应率：78%）。参与者的邻里环境属性通过环境审计进行评估，而非交通坐着的时间和机动交通使用国际体力活动量表-长表格（中文版）确定。每日非交通工具的坐立分钟数为283（SD=128），机动交通工具为23（SD=28）。犯罪/混乱的迹象，路灯，公共设施（厕所和长椅）和行人安全的患病率独立负相关，倾斜的街道正相关，坐的结果。附近的礼拜场所预测更多，公共交通点的普及率更低，非交通坐。关联的一个或两个坐的结果与流行的食品/杂货店和公园的存在被缓和的路径障碍和犯罪/混乱的迹象。研究结果表明，进入特定目的地以及相对低成本，对城市形态的影响最小的修改，如街道照明，公共厕所，长凳和公共交通点，可能会减少香港老年人的坐姿时间和相关的负面健康结果。
Sitting time is a public health concern. This study examined associations of objectively measured neighbourhood environmental attributes with non-transport sitting time and motorised transport in 484 Hong Kong older adults. Neighbourhood attributes encouraging walking may help older adults replace some sitting time at home and on motorised transport with light-to-moderate-intensity activities such as strolling around the neighbourhood or walking to/from neighbourhood destinations. Thus, we hypothesised environmental attributes found to be related to walking would show associations with non-transport sitting time and motorised transport opposite to those seen for walking. Cross-sectional. Hong Kong, an ultradense urban environment. 484 ethnic Chinese Hong Kong residents aged 65+ recruited from membership lists of four Hong Kong Elderly Health Centres representing catchment areas of low and high transport-related walkability stratified by socioeconomic status (response rate: 78%). Attributes of participants’ neighbourhood environments were assessed by environmental audits, while non-transport sitting time and motorised transport were ascertained using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire—Long Form (Chinese version). Daily non-transport sitting minutes were 283 (SD=128) and motorised transport 23 (SD=28). Prevalence of signs of crime/disorder, streetlights, public facilities (toilets and benches) and pedestrian safety were independently negatively related, and sloping streets positively related, to sitting outcomes. Places of worship in the neighbourhood were predictive of more, and prevalence of public transit points of less, non-transport sitting. Associations of either or both sitting outcomes with prevalence of food/grocery stores and presence of parks were moderated by path obstructions and signs of crime/disorder. The findings suggest that access to specific destinations and relatively low-cost, minimal impact modifications to the urban form, such as street lighting, public toilets, benches and public transit points, could potentially reduce sitting time and associated negative health outcomes in Hong Kong older adults.
