Association between parental stress, coping, mood, and subsequent child physical activity and screen-time: an ecological momentary assessment study
This study found parent's stress may negatively impact child's physical activity that day, but may positively impact physical activity the next day, namely girls. Findings suggest that reducing parental stress and improving coping abilities may improve girl's physical activity, but other approaches are needed to reduce child screen-time at this age.
