Why Environment & Physical Activity?
Broad societal & technological developments are
believed to be reducing PA in work, transport, &
household settings
These developments are happening in all
countries
Ecological models of behavior teach that policy &
environmental factors have the broadest & longestlasting impacts
Research on environment & policy aspects of PA
is limited in all countries and absent in most
www.activelivingresearch.org
Need for Research on Environment + PA
WHO global strategy on diet and physical
activity emphasizes environment & policy
change
National PA plans call for environment &
policy change
Country-specific research is needed to
inform policy & planning decisions

Primary Aim
 Investigate whether people who live in
“walkable” communities are more active,
after adjusting for SES, than people who live
in less walkable communities.

35 min/week less motor transport
50 min/week more MVPA (accelerometer)
– Very similar to US results

○:Significant relationship
• All environmental variables were related to specific types
of walking behavior in expected direction.
• Environmental variables related to walking for leisure and
walking for daily errands were different
• Relationship between walking and environment was
especially strong in women’s walking for daily errands 33

Main Results
• Walking for transport (30 min/day for at least 5
days/week) was positively associated with:
– Street density (POR 1.71, 95% CI 1.19-2.46)
– Street connectivity (POR 2.21, 95% CI 1.40-3.49)
– Bus Rapid Transit stations in the neighborhood (POR
1.71, 95% CI 1.19-3.47)
• Biking for transport was positively associated with:
– Street density (POR 1.99, 95% CI 1.24-3.19)
• Leisure time physical activity (30 min/day for at least
5 days/week) was positively associated with:
– Park density (POR 2.05, 95%CI 1.13-3.72)
– Bus Rapid Transit stations in the neighbohood (POR
1.27, 95% CI 1.07-1.50)

37
Rationale
• Each country has limited range of variation
in built environment variables, so multicountry studies are needed to understand
full impact of environments.
• Most studies of environmental correlates of
PA analyze each environment variable
separately, so the cumulative effects are not
clear.
• Built environment survey measure was
added to International PA Prevalence Study
38
PANES: Physical Activity
Neighborhood Environment Survey
• Perceived social & physical environment
items adapted from published surveys
(Kirtland, 2003; Saelens, 2003).
• Standard methods of translation and
cultural adaptation.
• Reliability confirmed in Sweden, Nigeria,
US
• Attributes rated on 4-point scale, but
dichotomized as “agree” vs “disagree”

Started at ICBM in Mainz Germany in 2004 by:
Sallis & Kerr, US
Owen, Australia
DeBourdeaudhuij, Belgium
Studies in 3 countries indicated that a common study
design and measures were feasible, so the goal was to
apply methods to other countries, improving on IPS study43
Why do we need the IPEN study?
• National organizations and WHO
recommend environment & policy changes
to increase PA
– Need international evidence
• Full variability in environments requires
research in multiple countries
• If data are to be pooled, common
measures & design are needed
• More detailed measures will provide more
specific policy guidance

Main NCI Study Aims
• IPEN study funded by NCI 2009—2013
• Main aims:
1. Support countries to collect or enhance data
according to common protocol
2. Transfer data to central dataset
3. Study co-ordination, quality control, & pooled
analyses
4. Support the network more widely
5. Advance science through pooled analyses
6. Use results to inform policy internationally
46
IPEN participating countries (so far)
–Australia
–Belgium
–Brazil
–Canada (2)
–Denmark
–Columbia
–Czech Republic
–Hong Kong
–Mexico
–Spain
–Sweden
–UK
–New Zealand
–USA
47
Policy relevance
• If studies show stronger relationship between
activity & environment, then policy makers more
likely to support & fund environmental change
• Examples from other countries with unique
environments can inform built environment
changes (without expensive experiments)
• National data needed in each country to
convince national policy makers
48
IPEN investigators in Toronto 2010: www.ipenproject.org
49
Conclusions
• Environments Seem to
Matter Around the World
• The international database
Is expanding rapidly
• We need to use research to
Drive policy change
