SUMMARY:ILCA Online Seminar: What gets older adults moving? A cross-sectional study of how neighbourhoods\, people & places shape active lives in Hong Kong
DESCRIPTION:This topic examines how neighbourhood design and social context are associated with older adults’ physical activity in Hong Kong. Using surveys\, accelerometers worn on the waist\, and GIS\, the study shows that perceived environmental qualities\, especially aesthetics\, walkability\, safety\, and social cohesion\, are key drivers of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA)\, while family functioning and social network size show no direct effects. \nAlison Ou is a postdoctoral fellow at Hong Kong Baptist University. She holds a PhD in Sports and Health Sciences and has a strong academic background in social policy\, criminology\, and conflict resolution. Her research focuses on aging\, health equity\, and the built environment\, examining how sociocultural and environmental factors are associated with physical activity of older adults. \nVisit the ILCA website for additional details and link to join online.
