Abstract
The four principal aims for the funded research were- (i) to elucidate the prevalence of physical activity and inactivity of Singaporean adolescent youths; (ii) to explain the relationships between physical activity, inactivity and metabolic syndrome and academic performance among Singaporean adolescents and (iii) to examine if 60 minutes of accumulated physical activity was sufficient to prevent insulin insensitivity among Singaporean adolescents and (iv) to examine the results of an intervention programme- PRIDE for PLAY- in raising the physical activity of adolescents in school.
