With the rapid development of wearable device technologies, accelerometers can record minute-by-minute physical activity for consecutive days, which provides important insight into a dynamic association between the intensity of physical activity and mental health outcomes for large-scale population studies. Using Shanghai school adolescent cohort we estimate the effect of health assessment results on physical activity profiles recorded by accelerometers throughout a week, which is recognized as repeatedly measured functional data. To achieve this goal, we propose an innovative two-dimensional functional mixed-effect model (2dFMM) for the specialized data, which smoothly varies over longitudinal day observations with covariate-dependent mean and covariance functions. The modeling framework characterizes the longitudinal and functional structures while incorporating two-dimensional fixed effects for covariates of interest. We also develop a fast three-stage estimation procedure to provide accurate fixed-effect inference for model interpretability and improve computational efficiency when encountering large datasets. We find strong evidence of intraday and interday varying significant associations between physical activity and mental health assessments among our cohort population, which shed light on possible intervention strategies targeting daily physical activity patterns to improve school adolescent mental health. Our method is also used in environmental data to illustrate the wide applicability. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.
