title = "Micro-scale pedestrian streetscapes and physical activity in Hispanic/Latino adults: Results from HCHS/SOL",
abstract = "We examined associations of micro-scale environment attributes (e.g., sidewalks, street crossings) with three physical activity (PA) measures among Hispanic/Latino adults (n = 1776) living in San Diego County, CA. Systematic observation was used to quantify micro-scale environment attributes near each participant's home. Total PA was assessed with accelerometers, and PA for transportation and recreation were assessed by validated self-report. Although several statistically significant interactions between individual and neighborhood characteristics were identified, there was little evidence micro-scale attributes were related to PA. An important limitation was restricted environmental variability for this sample which lived in a small area of a single county.",

Funding Information: Statistical analyses. Unweighted and weighted descriptive statistics were calculated in IBM SPSS Statistics 24 and regression analyses in Mplus version 7.4. The complex samples analyses accounted for the stratified sampling design, clustering of participants within census tracts, and sampling weights. The weights were trimmed to handle extreme values and calibrated to the 2010 US Census according to age, sex, and Hispanic/Latino background to support generalization of the results to the underlying population in the selected areas (LaVange et al., 2010). The number of participants with missing data for ≥1 variable in the analyses was 244 (13.7%) for models examining accelerometer-based total MVPA, 177 (10.0%) for models investigating transportation MVPA, and 237 (13.3%) for models examining recreation MVPA. Inverse probability weights (IPW) were used to account for the missingness due to non-adherence to the Actical protocol (Evenson et al., 2015). The final weight was a product of the IPW and sampling weight. Maximum likelihood robust estimation was used to account for missing data in covariates in all statistical models. The final analytic sample included 1776 participants.The Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos is a collaborative study supported by contracts from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) to the University of North Carolina (HHSN268201300001I /N01-HC-65233), University of Miami (HHSN268201300004I /N01-HC-65234), Albert Einstein College of Medicine (HHSN268201300002I/N01-HC6-5235), University of Illinois at Chicago (HHSN268201300003I /N01-HC-65236 Northwestern University), and San Diego State University (HHSN268201300005I /N01-HC-65237).
