Journal of Public Health. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10389-025-02531-z2198-18331613-2238https://hdl.handle.net/11268/16715Preschool-aged children’s daily activity patterns play a crucial role in their health and development, yet there is limited research on the optimal time-use composition of activities. Previous studies suggest that sleep, sedentary behavior (SB), light physical activity (LPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) all contribute to various health outcomes in children. However, the ideal balance of these activities for optimal development is not well understood. This study aimed to determine the optimal composition of daily activities (sleep, SB, LPA, MVPA) for preschoolers, in relation to body composition, motor skills, and cognition, using compositional data analysis (CoDA).engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Ejercicio físicoConducta sedentariaSalud infantiljournal article10.1007/s10389-025-02531-zopen accessPrimera infanciaInvestigación médicaMedicina preventivaGoal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
