Resumo(s)
This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between objectively measured total sedentary time and
academic achievement (AA) in Portuguese children. The sample comprised of 213 children (51.6% girls)
aged 9.46 ± 0.43 years, from the north of Portugal. Sedentary time was measured with accelerometry,
and AA was assessed using the Portuguese Language and Mathematics National Exams results.
Multilevel linear regression models were fitted to assess regression coefficients predicting AA. The
results showed that objectively measured total sedentary time was not associated with AA, after
adjusting for potential confounders
