contents Wearable movement data is collected by nearly all commercially available smartwatches and is a valuable resource for mental health research, reflecting fine-grained temporal behavioral trends. Despite its promise, the development of foundation models for health wearable modeling remains limited when compared to clinical image and text analysis. We designed transformers with patch embeddings and used self-supervised masked autoencoder pretraining on minute-level week-long actigraphy (physical activity intensity measurement) sequences to develop and evaluate the Pretrained Actigraphy Transformer (PAT). PAT is an open-source foundation model for wearable movement time series that combines week-long temporal modeling, psychiatric outcome evaluation, and reproducibility on public data. Pretrained on data from 21,538 U.S. participants in a nationally representative cohort from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), PAT consistently outperformed non-foundation-model baselines across mental health prediction tasks-including benzodiazepine and SSRI use, depression, and sleep abnormalities. During the benzodiazepine medication usage prediction task, PAT demonstrated the largest improvement over non-foundational deep learning models commonly used for time-series modeling (i.e., 55.6% improvement over the LSTM, 21.4% improvement over the 1-D CNN, 14.8% improvement over the ConvLSTM). Beyond predictive accuracy, PAT provides interpretable attention maps highlighting specific periods of daily activity most important for clinical predictions, offering model transparency and potential clinical insights. The results suggest that PAT offers an easy-to-deploy, adaptable and scalable solution to advance clinical insight from wearable sensor data for researchers and clinicians.
