  1. TPA total physical activity, MVPA moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity, SST sedentary screen time
  2. Data are presented as odds ratios (95% confidence interval); bold value indicates statistically significant effect
  3. Model 1: Adjusted for age (at T2) by sex interaction, rurality, childcare centre (as random effects), country sites (as random effects), parents’ highest level of education, children who reported as sick at T2 (preventing from being active at T2), and corresponding T1 measures (e.g., meeting/not meeting TPA guideline at T1 for TPA model)
  4. Model 2: Similar to Model 1 but also included other COVID-19 factors
  5. §Separate questions were asked for total physical activity, sitting (including screen time) and sleep, but not for MVPA
