Misalignment or Motivation? A Cluster Analysis Approach to Understanding Young Adolescent Physical Activity Trajectories in Summer Care Programs

Adolescents (n=47) in an 8-week summer program: k-means clusters combining perceived and device-measured PA showed “Overestimators” and “Underestimators” increased MVPA, while initially high-accurate actives declined; suggests tailoring strategies by perception–objective alignment.
