An online survey was administered (n = 24 302; 6\u201318 years; 51.7% boys) in nine countries. PA and RST were assessed by 7-day recall. In total, 9.3% of children (95% confidence interval: 6.9\u201311.7) met WHO PA recommendation, which was half of the proportion observed in Spring 2020 [19.0% (18.2\u201319.9)]. Sixty percent exceeded the RST recommendations. This suggests that winter lockdown could have a more negative impact on PA than in spring.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/eurpub\/ckac003","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,10]],"date-time":"2022-01-10T20:10:08Z","timestamp":1641845408000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Are we underestimating the impact of COVID-19 on children\u2019s physical activity in Europe?\u2014a study of 24 302 children"],"prefix":"10.1093","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0741-7880","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Viktoria A","family":"Kovacs","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hungarian School Sport Federation, Budapest, Hungary"}]},{"given":"Mirko","family":"Brandes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology (BIPS), Bremen, Germany"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Suesse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, Australia"}]},{"given":"Rok","family":"Blagus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Faculty, Institute for Biostatistics and Medical Informatics, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia"}]},{"given":"Stephen","family":"Whiting","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"WHO European Office for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases, Moscow, Russia"}]},{"given":"Kremlin","family":"Wickramasinghe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"WHO European Office for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases, Moscow, Russia"}]},{"given":"Anthony D","family":"Okely","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Early Start and Illawarra Health and Medical Research Institute, University of Wollongong, Wollongong, Australia"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022012121214650100_ckac003-B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"21780","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-020-78438-4","article-title":"Physical activity and screen time of children and adolescents before and during the COVID-19 lockdown in Germany: A natural experiment","volume":"10","author":"Schmidt","year":"2020","journal-title":"Sci Rep"},{"key":"2022012121214650100_ckac003-B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"106349","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ypmed.2020.106349","article-title":"Potential health-related behaviors for pre-school and school-aged children during COVID-19 lockdown: A narrative review","volume":"143","author":"L\u00f3pez-Bueno","year":"2021","journal-title":"Prev Med"},{"key":"2022012121214650100_ckac003-B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1080\/17461391.2021.1897166","article-title":"Physical activity, screen time and the COVID-19 school closures in Europe\u2014An observational study in 10 countries","author":"Kovacs","year":"2021","journal-title":"Eur J Sport Sci"},{"key":"2022012121214650100_ckac003-B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"74","DOI":"10.1186\/s12966-017-0526-7","article-title":"Weather and children\u2019s physical activity;
