possible answers:

to provide an evidence base for the behavioural determinants of health

to help understand the key issues relating to physical activity and inactivity

to track progress or lack of progressovertimeat a population level

to highlight disadvantaged groups so that specific interventions can be developed to ensure appropriate interventions can be designed, implemented and assessed.

In addition to assessing physical activity andinactivity for populations, there is value in assessing them at an individual level.

Some benefits of assessing an individual’s physical activity and sedentary behaviour include the following:

to gather specific information about an individual

to provide more accurate data foran individual, so appropriate strategies canbe tailored to that person

to provide information to enable an individual to highlight strengths and weaknesses of their daily movement patterns

to use the informationas a motivational tool to encourageincreasedphysical activity to use the information as a motivational tool to discourage sedentary behaviour

to track an individual’slevel of activity over time to highlight patterns of behaviour (e.g. increasedlevels ofsedentary behaviour over winter) so that trends can be identified and appropriate interventions put in place.

There are arangeof assessment tools. These are often categorised as either subjective or objective [][][

The2011–2013. ustralianHealthSurveyis thelargest and most detailed health survey ever to be undertaken

Overall they indicate that the major issue is with children spending too much time in front of a screen, with the data highlighting that most young children are active enough.
The data shows that for children between 2 and 4 years of age approximately:

seven out of ten children meet the physical activity guidelines

seven out of ten children spend excessive time using electronic media, the bulk of this time watching television and DVDs

children are active on average for 6 hours per day, with close to half indoor play and half outdoor play

children engage in sedentary behaviour using electronic media for 83 minutes per day all data for both boys and girls are similar with variations not being statistically significant.
