上学可能是一种方便的方式来增加儿童的身体活动水平。我们研究了城市多民族儿童上学的出行方式和身体活动水平之间的关系。2035名儿童（2006 - 2007年9-10岁）提供了他们通常上学方式的数据，并在醒着的时候佩戴了Actigraph-GT1M活动监测器。旅行方式与平均体力活动水平（每分钟数[CPM]、步数、每天进行轻度、中度或剧烈活动的时间）之间的关联在校正混杂变量的模型中进行了检验。1393名儿童（69%）步行或骑自行车上学；161人（8%）使用公共交通工具，481人（24%）驾车出行。欧洲白人儿童更倾向于步行/骑自行车，非洲加勒比黑人儿童更倾向于乘坐公共交通工具，南亚儿童更倾向于开车。与步行/骑自行车的儿童相比，开车旅行的儿童在中度至剧烈体育活动（- 7分钟，95%CI-9,-5）上花费的时间更少，CPM （- 32 CPM, 95%CI-44,-19）和每天步数（- 813步，95%CI,-1043,-582）更低。乘坐公共交通工具的学生的活动水平与步行/骑自行车的学生相似。开车出行的人在出行时间（上学时间是上午8-9点，下午3-5点）的身体活动量较低，但在工作日的其他时间和周末也很明显；他们没有因性别或种族而有所不同。积极上学与客观衡量的较高水平的身体活动有关，特别是在旅行期间，但在其他时间也是如此。如果开车旅行的儿童达到与使用主动旅行的儿童相似的身体活动水平（步数），他们的身体活动水平将增加9%。然而，人口增长将是适度的2%，因为在这个城市人口中，汽车旅行者的比例很低。
Travel to school may offer a convenient way to increase physical activity levels in childhood. We examined the association between method of travel to school and physical activity levels in urban multi-ethnic children. 2035 children (aged 9–10 years in 2006–7) provided data on their usual method of travel to school and wore an Actigraph-GT1M activity monitor during waking hours. Associations between method of travel and mean level of physical activity (counts per minute [CPM], steps, time spent in light, moderate or vigorous activity per day) were examined in models adjusted for confounding variables. 1393 children (69%) walked or cycled to school; 161 (8%) used public transport and 481 (24%) travelled by car. White European children were more likely to walk/cycle, black African Caribbeans to travel by public transport and South Asian children to travel by car. Children travelling by car spent less time in moderate to vigorous physical activity (−7 mins, 95%CI-9,-5), and had lower CPM (−32 CPM, 95%CI-44,-19) and steps per day (−813 steps, 95%CI,-1043,-582) than walkers/cyclists. Pupils travelling by public transport had similar activity levels to walkers/cyclists. Lower physical activity levels amongst car travellers' were especially marked at travelling times (school days between 8–9 am, 3–5 pm), but were also evident on weekdays at other times and at weekends; they did not differ by gender or ethnic group. Active travel to school is associated with higher levels of objectively measured physical activity, particularly during periods of travel but also at other times. If children travelling by car were to achieve physical activity levels (steps) similar to children using active travel, they would increase their physical activity levels by 9%. However, the population increase would be a modest 2%, because of the low proportion of car travellers in this urban population.
