Abstract
This study examined the variability, convergent validity and correlates of outdoor play (OP) in preschool-aged children. Participants were 107 preschool-aged children (3–5 years) and their parents from Edmonton, Canada, and surrounding areas. Children’s OP was measured via a parental questionnaire and the lux feature of ActiGraph accelerometers (n=98). Correlates from various levels of the socioecological framework were measured. Children had significantly higher OP in summer/fall months (versus winter months), on weekend days (versus weekdays), and when parental-reported (versus device-measured). Parental age was positively associated with children’s parental-reported OP on weekend days, and temperature was positively associated with children’s parental-reported OP in summer/fall months. Higher temperature was associated with a higher likelihood of children participating in ≥30 minutes/day of device-based measured OP (versus <30 minutes/day). Implementing interventions to promote OP in all weather, and days of the week, may help reverse the declining trend of children’s OP.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
