Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental factors associated with adults' participation in physical activity: a review
TL;DR: Physical environment factors have consistent associations with physical activity behavior and further development of ecologic and environmental models, together with behavior-specific and context-specific measurement strategies, should help in further understanding of these associations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding environmental influences on walking: Review and research agenda
TL;DR: Aesthetic attributes, convenience of facilities for walking, accessibility of destinations, and perceptions about traffic and busy roads were found to be associated with walking for particular purposes, and early evidence is promising.
Journal ArticleDOI
Social-cognitive and perceived environment influences associated with physical activity in older Australians.
TL;DR: Identifying predictors of physical activity in older populations, particularly social support, facility access, and neighbourhood safety, can inform the development of policy and intervention strategies to promote the health of older people.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations of neighbourhood greenness with physical and mental health: do walking, social coherence and local social interaction explain the relationships?
TL;DR: Perceived neighbourhood greenness was more strongly associated with mental health than it was with physical health, whereas the relationship between greenness and mental health was only partly accounted for by recreational walking and social coherence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Walkability of local communities: using geographic information systems to objectively assess relevant environmental attributes.
TL;DR: A previously developed index of walkability was operationalised in an Australian context, using available spatial data to generate a stratified sampling frame for the selection of households for the PLACE study.
