Modelling the impact of physical activity on public health: A review and critique

Paolo Candio, David Meads, Andrew J. Hill and Laura Bojke

Health Policy, 2020, vol. 124, issue 10, 1155-1164

Abstract: While several reviews have assessed economic evaluations of physical activity in public health and, in most cases, found the interventions to be cost-effective, the validity of the conclusions reached depends on the appropriateness of the modelling methods used in the individual studies.
