I am investigating the association of 24-hour movement behavior with health outcomes using accelerometry data from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 (NFBC1966). My current focus is on the domain-specific (occupational vs leisure-time) 24-hour movement behavior, and the mental health of middle-aged adults, specifically depressive and anxiety symptoms. I mainly utilize the compositional data analysis approach for my research.
