摘要：

The moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) of 70 children (age 8.6 years; 40 boys) was measured and gender and age differences were compared. Boys spent 28 minutes per day more than girls in MVPA (p = 0.02, d = 0.54), and younger children accumulated 24 minutes more MVPA than older peers (p = 0.0001, d = 0.91). Similar gender and age-related trends were apparent during segmented periods of the day. The majority of daily MVPA was accrued during school-related time (56.4 +/- 9.1%; p = 0.0001, d = 1.57). The findings reinforce the significance of schools as key environments for MVPA participation and promotion.
