Mapping movement behaviors and mental health among frontline workers : scoping review

Background

Frontline workers experience substantial occupational demands that may affect sleep, physical activity, sedentary behavior, recovery, and mental health. Although 24-hour movement behavior (24hrMB) frameworks conceptualize these behaviors as interdependent components of a finite day, it remains unclear how extensively frontline research has adopted integrated approaches, or how evidence is distributed across behaviors, mental health domains, occupations, and measurement methods.
