PURPOSE: Examine relationships between observed physical activity behavior and measures of the built environment collected on 291 street segments in Indianapolis and St. Louis. METHODS: Street segments were selected using a stratified geographic sampling design to ensure representation of neighborhoods with different land use and socioeconomic characteristics. Characteristics of the built environment on-street segments were audited using two methods: in-person field audits and audits based on interpretation of Google Street View imagery with each method blinded to results from the other. Segments were dichotomized as having a particular characteristic (e.g., sidewalk present or not) based on the two auditing methods separately. Counts of individuals engaged in different forms of physical activity on each segment were assessed using direct observation. Non-parametric statistics were used to compare counts of physically active individuals on each segment with built environment characteristic. RESULTS: Counts of individuals engaged in physical activity were significantly higher on segments with mixed land use or all non-residential land use, and on segments with pedestrian infrastructure (e.g., crosswalks and sidewalks) and public transit. CONCLUSION: Several micro-level built environment characteristics were associated with physical activity. These data provide support for theories that suggest changing the built environment and related policies may encourage more physical activity.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":3.295836866004329,"endowment":3.295836866004329,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"24904916","pmcid":"PMC4033002","openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2015867241","authors":[],"funders":[{"funder_name":"NCI NIH HHS","grant_id":"R21 CA140937","title":null},{"funder_name":"NIA NIH HHS","grant_id":"R01 AG010436","title":null},{"funder_name":"National Institutes of Health","grant_id":"5R01AG010436-08","title":"PHYSICAL FRAILTY IN URBAN AFRICAN AMERICANS"},{"funder_name":"National Institutes of Health","grant_id":"7R21CA140937-02","title":"Improving built environment measurement in physical activity research with omnidi"}],"total_grants":4,"fwci":6.4935,"citation_percentile":0.95677189,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2014,"count":1},{"year":2015,"count":3},{"year":2016,"count":4},{"year":2017,"count":2},{"year":2018,"count":2},{"year":2019,"count":3},{"year":2020,"count":3},{"year":2021,"count":2},{"year":2022,"count":2},{"year":2023,"count":4}],"oa_status":"gold","license":"cc-by","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpubh.2014.00052/pdf","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpubh.2014.00052/pdf","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2014.00052","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24904916","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://doaj.org/article/9c6b97d61ec64faebfda0c0e46e580e1","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/4033002","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://hdl.handle.net/1805/11990","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"http://hdl.handle.net/1805/11990","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://europepmc.org/articles/PMC4033002","host_type":"Europe_PMC"},{"url":"https://europepmc.org/articles/PMC4033002?pdf=render","host_type":"Europe_PMC"},{"url":"http://dx.doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2014.00052","host_type":""},{"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2014.00052","host_type":""}],"fields_of_study":["Urban Transport and Accessibility","Physical Activity and Health","Urban Green Space and Health","03 medical and health sciences","0302 clinical medicine"],"mesh_terms":[],"keywords":["Built environment","Audit","Pedestrian","Level design","Physical activity","Walkability","Transport engineering","Land use","Socioeconomic status","Computer science","Geography","Environmental health","Business","Civil engineering","Engineering","Medicine","Human–computer interaction","Population","Physical medicine and rehabilitation","Objective Measures","Walkable","Micro Characteristics","Street View","Policy Interventions","Public Health","Public aspects of medicine","RA1-1270"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":11,"sdg_label":"11.
