Abstract Previous research shows physical function and health state in the elderly are associated with daily activity behavior, such as activity, sedentary sleep, though most studies examine these independently, overlooking 24-hour interactions. This study aims to investigate relationships between (vision, hearing, limitations), self-perceived distribution of behaviors via compositional data analysis. A secondary analysis was conducted on from Survey Health, Ageing Retirement Europe. The analyzed included moderate-to-vigorous (MVPA), light (LPA), behavior (SEB), sleep duration (SD). Compositional employed account for inherently interdependent nature behaviors. Linear regression models were implemented, designating dependent variable independent variable. results indicated that vision hearing showed weaker nonsignificant associations (Marginal effects − 0.16 [-0.32,0.01] 0.11 [-0.18,0.40], p-value 0.063 0.991). Activity limitations significantly influence time allocation behaviors, no more MVPA (marginal effects: [0.04, 0.28], = 0.007) less SEB -0.08 [-0.15, 0.00], 0.038) SD -0.09 [-0.17, -0.02], 0.009).

There is mounting evidence that regular physical activity an important prerequisite for healthy cognitive aging. Consequently, the finding almost one-third of adult population does not reach recommended level calls further public health actions. In this context, digital and home-based training interventions might be a promising alternative to center-based intervention programs. Thus, systematic review aimed summarize current state literature on effects performance.

In a study involving 831 women and 309 men aged 18 to 64, we sought explore the key determinants influencing various components of well-being, including happiness, life satisfaction, vigor/vitality. The examined encompassed sociodemographic variables, health indicators, sedentary behaviors, physical activity, body mass index (BMI), sleep patterns, eating habits, alcohol consumption, smoking, mood personality traits, emotional intelligence, logical thinking, non-utilitarian decision-making, adverse childhood experiences. Our findings indicate that vigor are most significantly affected by indicators—especially depression—emotional intelligence (particularly ability manage emotions), overall subjective health. Additionally, specific such as extraversion in neuroticism men, played significant role well-being. Conversely, BMI, regular behavior, dietary avoiding smoking excessive well experiences, showed limited or no impact on well-being like vigor. These provide valuable insights into complex dynamics human highlighting distinct vigor/vitality for women.
