Following publication of the original article [1], the author noticed the errors in abstract section and in the value of table 3.

In Abstract under Methods heading, the paragraph should read, “The public health emergency due to the pandemic started in January 2020 and lasted for two months in Shanghai, China. A three-wave longitudinal study was conducted among 1,666 children and adolescents (6–16 years) in January, March, and July 2020. Moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA), recreational screen time, and depressive symptoms were measured using self-reported questionnaires. Random-intercept cross-lagged panel models were constructed to examine the bidirectional associations between physical activity and recreational screen time with depressive symptoms” instead of “The public health emergency due to the pandemic started in January 2023 and lasted for two months in Shanghai, China. A three-wave longitudinal study was conducted among 1,666 children and adolescents (6–18 years) in January, March, and July 2023. Moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA), recreational screen time, and depressive symptoms were measured using self-reported questionnaires. Random-intercept cross-lagged panel models were constructed to examine the bidirectional associations between physical activity and recreational screen time with depressive symptoms”.

In Table 3 under the Total column, the p-value corresponding to the “MVPA T1 → DS T2” pathway under the “Cross-lagged” heading should be corrected from 0.005 to 0.004.
