Adolescent Physical Activity and Trust Study Data from Sichuan, China

326 secondary school students in Sichuan Province, China, participated in a cross-sectional study linking interpersonal trust and objectively measured physical activity. Data includes accelerometer-derived moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) metrics and questionnaire scores for interpersonal trust and family capital. The dataset was created by Lan Luo and last updated on 2026-04-24.

Use Cases

• Analyzing statistical associations between psychosocial factors and physical activity based on the described structural equation modeling results.
• Investigating the mediating role of family capital in health behaviors based on the indirect statistical associations reported.
• Replicating or validating the study's findings on the link between interpersonal trust and MVPA using the provided data.

Strengths

• Includes objectively measured physical activity data from ActiGraph accelerometers worn for seven consecutive days.
• Data from 326 participants after quality control, with standardized statistical associations reported (e.g., β = 0.20 for trust-MVPA link).
• Uses validated questionnaires for interpersonal trust and family capital (economic, social, cultural dimensions).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The cross-sectional design, as noted in the conclusions, means observed associations are not evidence of temporal or causal relationships.
