Associations of Accelerometer‐Measured Physical Activity With Dementia, Anxiety, and Depression Among Older Adults
Higher and increasing MVPA over time is associated with better neuropsychiatric health in individuals aged ≥ 70 years. Future studies should prioritize evaluating detailed PA trajectories to better understand how different doses, intensities, and modalities of PA impact neuropsychiatric decline in older adults.
