To develop healthy behavior-change strategies for these individuals, a better understanding of their living environment is needed. PURPOSE: This study compared PA trends of college students relative to their living environment. METHODS: A volunteer sample of students (n = 338) from a large northeastern US university completed an online survey. Demographics, height/weight, frequency/ mode of active travel to/from campus, and amount of self-reported weekly PA were obtained. Students were dichotomized into groups depending on their self-reported walking time to campus (≥15 or <15 minutes), never walk or walk ≥ once/week to campus, and if they have a bus pass or not. An equipment index was created using the participants self-reported responses to their access of multiple types of recreational facilities/equipment at their home (e.g. treadmill, pool, etc.). These groups were compared to moderate PA (MPA), strength training (ST), vigorous PA (VPA) minutes, and walking time to campus using t-tests. RESULTS: Participants were primarily white (n = 182, 60.3%) and majority were female (n=153, 50.5%). Students that live ≥ 15 minutes from campus had significantly lower levels of weekly MPA (p = .024), METS (p = .021), and ST (p = .002). Weekly MPA, METS, and ST (p < .05) were also significantly lower in students who did not walk to campus at least once a week. Students that had access to a bus pass showed lower amounts of MPA, METS, and ST per week (p < .05). Students who did not walk once a week to campus and those who lived ≥ 15 minutes away from campus had significantly higher accessibility to exercise equipment. CONCLUSIONS: There were significant differences in the amount of weekly PA for those living further from campus.

The number, and condition, of and walking behavior differ by age groups. Therefore, this study aimed to examine facilities and amenities integrated into the park design can create a variety of potential SATURDAY, MAY 30, 2020 MAY SATURDAY, age-related differences in associations of built environmental attributes with walking activity zones for MVPA. PURPOSE: To understand how park users acquire MVPA in older Taiwanese adults.MTHODS: This study was based on a cross-sectional across a variety of park features within the City of Knoxville, a mid-sized city in telephone survey using a computer-assisted telephone interviewing, targeting the Appalachian region. METHODS: Physical activity, both active and passive, 1,068 older Taiwanese adults (over 65 years) in 2017.
