Development and validation of the sedentary behavior regulation scale in Korean Adults Population.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sedentary behavior is a well-established independent risk factor for numerous chronic diseases. However, validated tools to assess the psychological and behavioral regulation of sedentary time remain limited. This study aimed to develop and validate a self-report scale for assessing sedentary behavior regulation in Korean adults. This scale was developed using a comprehensive multiphase process. First, items were generated based on a comprehensive literature review and expert consultation, followed by a content validity assessment. In total, 600 Korean adults were recruited. Construct validity was examined using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Criterion validity was evaluated by assessing the correlation between the new scale and the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). Finally, reliability was assessed through internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The final instrument, the Sedentary Behavior Regulation Scale (SBRS), consisted of 12 items across two distinct sub-factors: sedentary behavior management and environmental support and active movement in sedentary contexts. Criterion-related validity was supported by a small but significant positive correlation with physical activity (r = .19, p < .001) and a small to moderate negative correlation with sedentary time (r = -.33, p < .001). The scale also exhibited excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's α = .87, McDonald's omega = .87) and good test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = .85). Overall, the SBRS demonstrated preliminary evidence of reliability and validity for assessing behavioral and environmental strategies to reduce sedentary time. This study advances our understanding of sedentary behavior beyond simple activity measurements and provides a valuable foundation for developing targeted public health interventions to mitigate sedentary time.
