Overview

Retrospective study examines commuting patterns in adolescents based on distance, sex, and socio-demographics.

Key Points

  • Adolescents are more likely to engage in active travel to school when the distance is shorter, emphasizing the importance of distance.
  • A total of 24,654 students aged 11-16 were included to analyze the link between active travel and commuting distances.
  • Logistic regression was used to assess factors influencing commuting patterns while adjusting for socio-demographic variables.
  • Understanding distance thresholds can inform future infrastructure and policy aimed at promoting active travel among adolescents.
