A five-year study involving 1,216 adolescents has found that the those who spent the most time in outdoor physical activity had higher quality of life (QoL) scores than those who spent the least. In contrast, those who had the highest (vs. lowest) amount of screen time (TV, computer, etc.) had significantly lower QoL scores.
PositiveTip: Physical activity outdoors and limited screen time can enhance quality of life for teens.
