背景
州休会法建议，以鼓励充分和公平地获得休会及其好处，但下游影响的州休会法是未知的。我们研究了州休会法律与地区一级的政策和学校休会规定的关联。
方法
这是对学校卫生政策和实践调查的横截面分析，该调查是美国学区（2016年）和学校（2014年）的全国代表性样本。州一级的休会法律被编码为无，建议或要求休会。逻辑和线性回归被用来研究州法律与地区政策和学校课间休息规定之间的关联。从2000年的数据，提出了突出的变化，休会政策和规定随着时间的推移。
结果
与没有休会政策的州相比，当州休会法建议或要求休会时，地区政策要求休会的可能性分别高出2.22倍和2.34倍。有没有显着差异，在学校一级休会规定的国家休会法，但点估计从2000年表明，国家没有一个法律有最大的下降，随着时间的推移，休会规定。
结论
州休会法与地区一级的政策是积极相关的。学校一级的影响尚不清楚，需要继续监测。
BACKGROUND
State recess laws are recommended to encourage adequate and equitable access to recess and its benefits, but the downstream effects of state recess laws are unknown. We examined the association of state recess laws with district-level policy and school recess provision.
METHODS
This is cross-sectional analysis of the School Health Policies and Practices Survey, a US nationally representative sample of school districts (2016) and schools (2014). State-level recess laws were coded as none, recommend, or require recess. Logistic and linear regression were used to examine the association between state law with district policies and school recess provision, respectively. Data from 2000 are presented to highlight changes in recess policy and provision over time.
RESULTS
The odds of a district policy requiring recess were 2.22 and 2.34 times greater when state recess law recommended or required recess, respectively, compared to states with no recess policy. There were no significant differences in school-level recess provision by state recess law but point estimates from 2000 indicated states without a law had the largest declines in recess provision over time.
CONCLUSIONS
State recess laws are positively associated with district-level policy. Effects at the school level are unclear and continued surveillance is needed.
