Journal ArticleDOI
Neighborhood design for walking and biking: physical activity and body mass index.
Barbara B. Brown,Ken R. Smith,Ken R. Smith,Heidi A. Hanson,Jessie X. Fan,Lori Kowaleski-Jones,Cathleen D. Zick +6 more
TL;DR: Greater proportions of workers who walk or bike to work in neighborhoods relate to lower weight and higher MVPA, and bikeability merits greater attention as a modifiable activity-friendliness factor, particularly for men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Moderate to vigorous physical activity and weight outcomes: does every minute count?
Jessie X. Fan,Barbara B. Brown,Heidi A. Hanson,Lori Kowaleski-Jones,Ken R. Smith,Cathleen D. Zick +5 more
TL;DR: The findings showed that for weight gain prevention, accumulated higher-intensity PA bouts of < 10 minutes are highly beneficial, supporting the public health promotion message that “every minute counts.”
Journal ArticleDOI
Public transit generates new physical activity: evidence from individual GPS and accelerometer data before and after light rail construction in a neighborhood of Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
Harvey J. Miller,Calvin P. Tribby,Barbara B. Brown,Ken R. Smith,Carol M. Werner,Jean Wolf,Laura Wilson,Marcelo Oliveira +7 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that transit use directly generates new PA that is not shifted from other PA, which supports the public health benefits from new high quality public transit such as LRT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relocation and privacy regulation: a cross-cultural analysis
TL;DR: The authors found that effective privacy regulation was related to place attachment and a subjective sense of well-being in Asian and American students in the U.S.A. They also found that privacy regulation with new neighbours may involve an incongruity between previously learned learned privacy mechanisms and those prescribed by the new culture of residence.
Journal ArticleDOI
The home and identity display: interpreting resident territoriality from home exteriors
Paul B. Harris,Barbara B. Brown +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a content analysis was conducted on the cues judges reported using in making their decisions about resident commitment to the home and the block, and it was shown that judges are unable to distinguish between home and block commitments because they often use the same set of cues to judge both types of commitment.
