Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Public health

Mark S. Tremblay mostly deals with Gerontology, Physical therapy, Obesity, Demography and Body mass index. His Gerontology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Psychological intervention, Physical fitness, Health indicator, Childhood obesity and Sedentary lifestyle. Psychosocial is closely connected to Screen time in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Sedentary lifestyle.

His Physical therapy study combines topics in areas such as Pediatric population, Applied psychology, Heart rate monitoring and Public health. His Public health research incorporates elements of Guideline and Focus group. His Demography study also includes fields such as

  • Overweight which is related to area like National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth,
  • Cross-sectional study which is related to area like Multilevel model and Waist.

His most cited work include:

  • A comparison of direct versus self-report measures for assessing physical activity in adults: a systematic review (1712 citations)
  • A comparison of direct versus self-report measures for assessing physical activity in adults: a systematic review (1712 citations)
  • A comparison of direct vs. self-report measures for assessing height, weight and body mass index: a systematic review (1483 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Mark S. Tremblay focuses on Gerontology, Demography, Obesity, Physical therapy and Body mass index. His Gerontology research includes themes of Psychological intervention, Physical fitness, Public health, Health indicator and Sedentary lifestyle. His work deals with themes such as Sedentary time, Cross-sectional study, Odds, Screen time and Socioeconomic status, which intersect with Demography.

The various areas that he examines in his Screen time study include Cognitive development and Developmental psychology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Odds ratio, Community health and Environmental health in addition to Obesity. His Physical therapy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Young adult and Report card.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Gerontology (39.37%)
  • Demography (27.68%)
  • Obesity (27.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Demography (27.68%)
  • Screen time (19.77%)
  • Obesity (27.02%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Demography, Screen time, Obesity, Body mass index and Gerontology. His Demography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cross-sectional study, Odds, Childhood obesity, Cardiorespiratory fitness and Socioeconomic status. His work on Overweight as part of general Obesity research is frequently linked to Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Mark S. Tremblay focuses mostly in the field of Overweight, narrowing it down to matters related to Environmental health and, in some cases, Public health. His work is dedicated to discovering how Body mass index, Sedentary time are connected with Epidemiology and other disciplines. His studies in Gerontology integrate themes in fields like Novelty and Quality of life.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Impact of the COVID-19 virus outbreak on movement and play behaviours of Canadian children and youth: a national survey. (121 citations)
  • Impact of the COVID-19 virus outbreak on movement and play behaviours of Canadian children and youth: a national survey. (121 citations)
  • Temporal trends in the cardiorespiratory fitness of children and adolescents representing 19 high-income and upper middle-income countries between 1981 and 2014. (81 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Disease

Mark S. Tremblay mainly investigates Screen time, Demography, Behavioural sciences, Gerontology and Public health. His research integrates issues of Sleep duration, Cross-sectional study, Health indicator, Developmental psychology and Parental education in his study of Screen time. Mark S. Tremblay combines subjects such as Rural area, Cardiorespiratory fitness, Socioeconomic status and Population health with his study of Demography.

The concepts of his Cardiorespiratory fitness study are interwoven with issues in Descriptive statistics and Obesity. His Gerontology research integrates issues from Systematic review, Novelty and Quality of life. His work carried out in the field of Public health brings together such families of science as Cognition, Social cognitive theory, Odds and Sitting.
