While sedentary behavior has been implicated as a contributing factor, longitudinal data from Chinese adolescent populations are still limited.<h4>Objectives</h4>To examine the association between sedentary behaviors and the development of depressive symptoms among adolescents in Tianjin, China.<h4>Method</h4>A total of 20,738 adolescents aged 12-19 years from the 2022 wave of a school-based survey in Tianjin were included in the cross-sectional analysis. Of these, 4791 participants with available follow-up data collected in 2023 were analyzed prospectively. Self-reported sedentary behavior was categorized into ≤2, 2-4, 4-8, >8 h/day. Depressive symptoms were assessed on the 20-item Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D-20; cutoff score ≥ 16). We performed multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for demographic, behavioral, and lifestyle factors. Subgroup analyses based on sociodemographic characteristics were also performed.<h4>Results</h4>Adolescents engaging in more than 8 h per day of sedentary behavior had greater odds of depressive symptoms in cross-sectional analysis (OR = 1.26, 95 % CI: 1.12-1.42). In prospective analysis, adolescents reporting 4-8 h of sedentary behavior per day showed borderline significance for increased odds of developing depressive symptoms (OR = 1.31, 95 % CI: 0.98-1.75), while those exceeding 8 h demonstrated an elevated risk (OR = 1.67, 95 % CI: 1.23-2.28). No significant interaction by sociodemographic characteristics were detected.<h4>Conclusions</h4>Excessive sedentary behavior is longitudinally associated with depressive symptoms among adolescents in Tianjin. These results underscore the need to incorporate strategies aimed at reducing sedentary behavior into early adolescent mental health interventions.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"41101495","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W4415185926","authors":[],"funders":[{"funder_name":"National Council for Scientific and Technological Development","grant_id":"311109/2023-3","title":null},{"funder_name":"Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities","grant_id":"JUSRP123076","title":null}],"total_grants":2,"fwci":0.0,"citation_percentile":0.29163099,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[],"oa_status":"closed","license":"https://doi.org/10.15223/policy-004","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S0165032725018944?httpAccept=text/xml","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S0165032725018944?httpAccept=text/plain","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jad.2025.120452","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41101495","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Physical Activity and Health","Obesity, Physical Activity, Diet","Sleep and related disorders","Humans","Sedentary Behavior","Adolescent","Male","Cross-Sectional Studies","Female","China","Longitudinal Studies","Depression","Child","Young Adult","Risk Factors","Schools","Adolescent Behavior"],"mesh_terms":["Adolescent","Adolescent Behavior","Child","China","Cross-Sectional Studies","Depression","Female","Humans","Longitudinal Studies","Male","Risk Factors","Schools","Young Adult","Sedentary Behavior"],"keywords":["Sedentary behavior","Depressive symptoms","Depression (economics)","Mental health","Longitudinal study","Sedentary lifestyle","Physical activity","Health behavior","China","Cross-sectional study","Adolescents"],"sdg_mappings":[],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-05T11:10:19.425652Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
