Associations of risk and time preferences with Japanese workers' physical activity and sedentary behavior.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: Although individual risk and time preferences appear to be associated with (un)healthy behaviors, limited evidence exists regarding whether domain-specific physical activity and sedentary behaviors vary according to risk and time preferences. This study investigated the association of risk and time preference with domain-specific physical activity and total sedentary time among Japanese working adults. Methods: This study recruited 2400 Japanese workers via an internet survey conducted in March 2022 and assessed their risk preferences, time preferences, domain-specific physical activity times, total sedentary time, and sociodemographic characteristics. Data were analyzed using a multiple regression analysis. Results: Multiple regression analysis indicated that a risk-averse disposition in risk preference was significantly associated with lower total sedentary time. No statistically significant relationship was observed between risk preference and any physical activity measure. A higher time preference was significantly associated with higher moderate-to-vigorous physical activity during work and with lower total sedentary time. Conclusions: Individual risk preferences were not clearly related to domain-specific physical activity. In contrast, higher time preference was modestly associated with physical activity in work-related contexts. Given that both risk and time preferences were linked to total sedentary time, further research is needed to examine sedentary behavior across domains.
