Survey on Parental and Adolescent Physical Activity Mediated by Family Support in China

A 2023 survey across 15 provinces in China collected data from 11,940 participants to examine the relationship between parental and adolescent physical activity. The study used multiple linear regression and mediation modeling to analyze how family support mediates this relationship. The dataset was authored by Fusheng Liang and is licensed under CC-BY-4.0.

Use Cases

• Conducting mediation analysis based on the relationship between parental and adolescent physical activity.
• Exploring subgroup heterogeneity based on the demographic variables mentioned as potential confounders.
• Training predictive models for adolescent physical activity levels based on parental activity and family support metrics.
• Replicating the statistical findings (e.g., β coefficients, mediation effect size) presented in the study.

Strengths

• Includes a substantial sample size of 11,940 participants.
• Covers a broad geographic area across 15 provinces in China.
• Analysis includes specific statistical results (e.g., β=0.0969, mediation effect size 0.0310).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (15.9 KB), suggesting it may contain only summary statistics or a limited subset of the survey data.
