(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-22)
      Background: Investigating socioeconomic variation in physical activity (PA) and sedentary time is important as it may represent a pathway by which socioeconomic position (SEP) leads to ill health. Findings on the association ...

    • Associations between bicycling and carotid arterial stiffness in adolescents: the European Youth Hearts Study

      The aim of the study was to investigate the associations between bicycling and carotid arterial stiffness, independent of objectively measured moderate-and-vigorous physical activity. This cross-sectional study included ...

    • Framework of outcome measures recommended for use in the evaluation of childhood obesity treatment interventions: the CoOR framework 

      Bryant, M.; Ashton, L.; Nixon, J.; Jebb, S.; Wright, J.; Roberts, K.; Brown, J.; Cooper, Ashley R.; Cummings, Steven; Ekelund, Ulf; Gorecki, Claudia; Griffiths, Lucy; Hamilton-Shield, Julian; Hill, Andrew; Kind, Paul; Reilly, John J.; Summerbell, Carolyn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-04-14)

    • Longitudinal associations of cycling to school with adolescent fitness 

      Cooper, Ashley R.; Wedderkopp, Niels; Jago, Russell; Kristensen, Peter Lund; Møller, Niels C.; Froberg, Karsten; Page, Angie S.; Andersen, Lars Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-06-18)

    • Moderate to vigorous physical activity and sedentary time and cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents 

      Ekelund, Ulf; Luan, Juan'an; Sherar, Lauren; Esliger, Dale W.; Griew, Pippa; Cooper, Ashley R. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-02-15)
      Context Sparse data exist on the combined associations between physical activity and sedentary time with cardiometabolic risk factors in healthy children. Objective To examine the independent and combined associations ...

    • Objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time in youth: the International children’s accelerometry database (ICAD). 

      Cooper, Ashley R.; Goodman, Anna; Page, Angie S.; Sherar, Lauren B.; Esliger, Dale W.; van Sluijs, Esther M.F; Andersen, Lars Bo; Anderssen, Sigmund A.; Cardon, Greet; Davey, Rachel; Froberg, Karsten; Hallal, Pedro; Janz, Kathleen F.; Kordas, Katarzyna; Kreimler, Susi; Pate, Russell; Puder, Jardena; Reilly, John J.; Salmon, Jo; Sardinha, Luis B.; Timperio, Anna M.; Ekelund, Ulf (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-17)
