Table 2 Association between frequency of active travel to non-school destinations (low vs. high frequency of active travel) and physical activity (n = 322)

From: Active travel to non-school destinations but not to school is associated with higher physical activity levels in an ethnically diverse sample of inner-city schoolchildren
