DESCRIPTION:The seminar will focus on findings about influences on physica
 l inactivity patterns in mid-adulthood using data from the 1958 British Bi
 rth Cohort. In this cohort\, leisure time activity frequency was measured 
 with the same questions at 33y\, 42y and 50y. The talk will describe the s
 tability and change in inactivity in mid-adulthood and then examine life-c
 ourse influences on these inactivity patterns. Influences considered will 
 be from early life and adulthood. The work highlights the importance of as
 sessing activity within individuals as they age and allows for identificat
 ion of vulnerable groups for whom action is needed to avoid future leisure
 -time inactivity.
