Abstract :
[en] The lifestyle of children and adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic has been affected dramatically by restrictions, causing a substantial decrease in physical activity (PA) and extensive increase in sedentary activity time (Xiang et al. 2020).
The purpose of this study was to investigate PA and lifestyle habits of adolescent students in a sample of European countries involved in the SUGAPAS project (Supporting Gamified Physical Activities in & out of Schools), an Erasmus+ funded project aiming to design and implement mobile games which should trigger students’ health-related habitual behavior.
