Congratulations to Derek Paterson & Dr. Guy Faulkner on their recently published paper, “Exploring the impact of COVID-19 on the movement behaviors of children and youth: A scoping review of evidence after the first year.”
The paper aims to summarize systematically the available literature investigating the relationships between the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and movement behaviors (physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep) of school-aged children (aged 5−11 years) and youth (aged 12−17 years) in the first year of the COVID-19 outbreak.
Derek is a masters student studying under the supervision of Dr. Guy Faulkner and working in the Population Physical Activity Lab. He is involved and interested in research regarding physical literacy, teaching physical education and youth movement behaviours, especially within the context of a pandemic.
