Seasonal variations in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity among children and adolescents with visual impairment during different segments of the school day

The findings suggest that seasonal factors should be considered when designing physical activity programs for children and adolescents with VI. In particular, more PE classes should be provided and strategies should be adopted to increase MVPA levels during recess and lunchtime in both seasons, which may help children and adolescents with VI to meet the internationally recommended PA standards. Future research should explore the underlying factors influencing seasonal variations in PA among this population and develop targeted interventions to promote MVPA engagement.

In particular, more PE classes should be provided and strategies should be adopted to increase MVPA levels during recess and lunchtime in both seasons, which may help children and adolescents with VI to meet the internationally recommended PA standards. Future research should explore the underlying factors influencing seasonal variations in PA among this population and develop targeted interventions to promote MVPA engagement.
