A cross-sectional study from the SITLESS project 2023 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Background: Sedentary behavior (SB) is a determinant of health in older adult people. Educational level is a primary driver of health disparities and is demonstrated to be a reliable measure of socioeconomic position. We aimed to examine the associations between educational level and self-reported along with device-measured SB in older adults living in Europe and the association of mentally active and passive SB domains with the educational level and gender in these associations. Methods: The design is cross-sectional. One thousand three hundred and sixty participants aged 65 and over (75.3±6.3 years old, 61.8% women) participated. Inclusion criteria were scored with the Short Physical Performance Battery. Variables that describe the sample were assessed with an interview, and device-measured SB was assessed with an accelerometer. SB was assessed with the Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire and an accelerometer. Multiple linear regression models were used to study the association between the level of education and SB. Results: Participants self-reported an average of 7.82 (SD: 3.02) daily waking hours of SB during weekend days, and the average of device-measured SB was 11.39 (1.23) h. Total mentally active SB (weekdays and weekends) was associated with the education level (p < 0.000). Participants were more sedentary during the week than during weekends, regardless of level of education (p < 0.000). Education level was significantly associated with self-reported mean hours per day in 46SB (p = 0.000; R=0.026; 95%CI). Conclusion: Low education level in older adults is associated with self-reported SB but not with objective SB measures. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.0 2023 PUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH 115 / 408 = 0.282 2023 Q2 T1 PUBLIC, ENVIRONMENTAL & OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH 115 / 408 = 0.282 2023 Q2 T1 0.895 2023 Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health 2023 Q1 4.8 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Tully, Mark A.
