Aerobic fitness mediates the intervention effects of a school-based physical activity intervention on academic performance. The school in Motion study – A cluster randomized controlled trial
Solberg, Runar Barstad; Steene-Johannessen, Jostein; Fagerland, Morten; Anderssen, Sigmund Alfred; Berntsen, Sveinung; Resaland, Geir Kåre; van Sluijs, Esther M.F.; Ekelund, Ulf; Kolle, Elin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Little information exists on the mechanism of how physical activity interventions effects academic performance. We examined whether the effects of a school-based physical activity intervention on academic performance were ... -
Cumbersome but desirable—Breaking the code of everyday cycling
Bjørnarå, Helga Birgit; Westergren, Thomas; Fegran, Liv; te Velde, Saskia J.; Fyhri, Aslak; Deforche, Benedicte; Andersen, Lars Bo; Berntsen, Sveinung; Bere, Elling Tufte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Introduction Cycling for transport could integrate physical activity (PA) into daily routines and potentially increase total PA levels. However, for parents with young children, most factors affecting transport mode choice ... -
The effect of a school-based intervention on physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength: the School in Motion cluster randomized trial
Kolle, Elin; Solberg, Runar Barstad; Säfvenbom, Reidar; Dyrstad, Sindre Mikal; Berntsen, Sveinung; Resaland, Geir Kåre; Ekelund, Ulf; Anderssen, Sigmund Alfred; Steene-Johannessen, Jostein; Grydeland, May (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Physical activity (PA) declines throughout adolescence, therefore PA promotion during this period is important. We analyzed the effect of two school-based PA interventions on daily PA levels, cardiorespiratory ... -
From cars to bikes - the effect of an intervention providing access to different bike types: A randomized controlled trial
Bjørnarå, Helga Birgit; Berntsen, Sveinung; te Velde, Saskia J.; Fyhri, Aslak; Deforche, Benedicte; Andersen, Lars Bo; Bere, Elling Tufte (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Introduction We aimed to investigate whether providing parents with children in kindergarten with access to different bicycle types could influence (i) travel behavior and cycling amount, and (ii) intrinsic motivation for ... -
The impact of weather conditions on everyday cycling with different bike types in parents of young children participating in the CARTOBIKE randomized controlled trial
Bjørnarå, Helga Birgit; Berntsen, Sveinung; te Velde, Saskia J.; Fyhri, Aslak; Isaksen, Ketil; Deforche, Benedicte; Andersen, Lars Bo; Stenling, Andreas; Bere, Elling Tufte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Knowledge about how weather conditions affect travel behavior in different user groups and contexts is relevant for planners and policymakers to facilitate sustainable transportation systems. We aimed to assess the influence ...
