Physical activity and emotional problems amongst adolescents : a longitudinal study. [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Promotion of physical activity (PA) is at the top of the public health agenda. However, there are few longitudinal studies investigating the relationship between PA and children's mental health. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association between self-reported physical activity (PA) and emotional problems 1-year later in a cohort of schoolchildren.
