Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: PURPOSE: To examine differences in activity patterns across employment and occupational classifications. DESIGN: Cross-sectional. SETTING: A 2005-2006 Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study. SAMPLE: Participants with valid accelerometry data (n = 2068). MEASURES: ) using Freedson cut-points. Employment status was self-reported as full time, part time, unemployed, keeping house, or raising children. Self-reported job duties were categorized into 23 major groups using the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification.
