Passive and Mentally-Active Sedentary Behaviors and Incident Major Depressive Disorder: a 13-Year Cohort Study

Depression is a prevalent and debilitating disorder associated with considerable socio-occupational impairment (Pratt et al., 2016). Although evidence-based treatments have grown, the success of interventions and maintenance of treatment responses remains limited (Pybis et al., 2017). Thus, there is a need for improved understanding of factors associated with depression onset so that efficacious treatment strategies can be developed and therapeutic outcomes optimized.
