Does accumulated family risk inhibit adolescent physical activity at home? An examination with a longitudinal latent growth model.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe escalating prevalence of problem behaviors among adolescents, primarily stemming from accumulated family risk has emerged as a significant concern in contemporary school and family education. This phenomenon warrants particular attention as it may directly lead to reduced physical activity levels among adolescents within their domestic settings, potentially resulting in significant long-term consequences. Grounded in ecological systems theory, this study seeks to elucidate the cumulative effects of family risk on adolescent development. Through the application of a latent growth model across three distinct observation periods, we aim to systematically examine and clarify the longitudinal development trajectories and underlying interaction mechanisms of the variables under investigation.
methodsA simple random cluster sampling method was utilized to select four middle schools from Sichuan Province, Guangdong Province, Hebei Province, and Beijing City as the research sites. A total of 682 primary and middle school students participated in three waves of follow-up surveys. Data were collected using validated scales, including the Accumulated Family Risk Scale and the Home Physical Activity Scale, to assess the respective constructs.
results(1) Adolescent accumulated family risk and home physical activity exhibited relative stability over the three observation periods, and a significant negative correlation was observed between these two variables. (2) The initial levels of adolescent home physical activity and accumulated family risk were significantly negatively correlated. Furthermore, these initial levels were found to significantly predict the growth rate of accumulated family risk, with the direction of influence being negative.
conclusionThe findings suggest that higher levels of physical activity and lower initial levels of accumulated family risk may serve as protective factors against the escalation of accumulated family risk levels during adolescence. These findings offer novel empirical evidence and theoretical insights for designing targeted interventions aimed at mitigating accumulated family risks among adolescents.
