Contemp Clin Trials Commun . 2024 Sep; 42:101367. PMID: 39319319
Background: Population level physical activity generally does not meet recommended targets. Compared with private motor vehicle users, public transport users tend to be more physically active and financial incentives may...

Evans J, Stanesby O, Blizzard L, Greaves S, Timperio A, Jose K, et al.
Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act . 2024 Aug; 21(1):91. PMID: 39160546
Background: Greater public transport use has been linked to higher physical activity levels. However, neither the amount of physical activity associated with each daily public transport trip performed, nor the...

Sharman M, Stanesby O, Jose K, Greaves S, Cleland V
Health Promot J Austr . 2024 May; 36(1):e881. PMID: 38812377
Issue Addressed: Public transport (PT) users often accumulate more physical activity (PA) than private motor vehicle users and financial incentives may increase PT use. Responding to rising petrol prices, from...

Evans J, Stanesby O, Blizzard L, Jose K, Sharman M, Ball K, et al.
Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act . 2023 Aug; 20(1):98. PMID: 37587424
Background: Public transport users tend to accumulate more physical activity than non-users; however, whether physical activity is increased by financially incentivising public transport use is unknown. The trips4health study aimed...

Health Promot J Austr . 2023 Jul; 35(2):410-422. PMID: 37403457
Issue Addressed: Social support is positively correlated with physical activity (PA), especially amongst girls, but is underexplored in male-dominated action sports (e.g., mountain biking, skateboarding and surfing). This study explored...

Pilot Feasibility Stud . 2021 Dec; 7(1):217. PMID: 34893076
