Abstract The built and natural environment can facilitate (un)healthy behaviors in adolescence. However, most previous studies have focused on examining associations between singular aspects of the environment. This study examined association mixture health‐promoting health‐constraining environmental features a Healthy Location Index (HLI) physical activity screen time among adolescents. cross‐sectional used data from Built Environment Active Transport to School (BEATS) Research Program based Dunedin, New Zealand. Data 1,162 adolescents with complete demographic, health behavior spatial records were included analysis. was defined using HLI access (e.g., greenspace, blue space, facility) fast‐food outlets) their mixture.
