Abstract Background: This study aims to investigate the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the Brunel Lifestyle Physical Activity Questionnaire (BLPAQ) and examine the cultural adaptation of the questionnaire.Methods: After the translation process, the test-retest reliability of the Turkish version of the questionnaire was analyzed with 24 (31.20±5.0 years old; 50% female) participants (2nd test was done 15 days after the first test). In addition, the validity of the scale was evaluated by the correlation between the BLPAQ and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF) completed by 113 (30.59±5.40 years old; 63.7% Female) participants.Results: A powerful positive and significant correlation was found between the correlation coefficients of the BLPAQ's PPA and UPA subscales between both tests (respectively r=0.96, p<0.01; r=0.87, p<0.01). The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was found to be 0.77 (quite reliable). The PPA subscale of the BLPAQ was positive with the IPAQ-SF's high-intensity physical activity subscale (r=0.47 p=0.00) and total IPAQ-SF excluding sitting (r=0.50 p=0.00) medium in the direction and low positive correlation with the walking activity subscale (r=0.25 p=0.024). No significant correlation was found between the UPA subdivision of BLPAQ and IPAQ-SF (p>0.05).Conclusion: BLPAQ, adapted into Turkish, is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to determine lifestyle according to physical activity level.

The Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C) is a validated self-report measure of physical activity widely used to assess physical activity in children (8-14 years of age). To date, however, the instrument has been validated in largely White Canadian samples. The purpose of the present article is to determine the psychometric properties of the PAQ-C for African American, European American, and Hispanic children. Two studies were conducted in which independent samples were administered the PAQ-C, along with varying indices of cardiovascular fitness, fatness, and psychological measures related to physical activity. Results showed that the reliability and validity of the PAQ-C varied by race and that modifications might be necessary.

Objectives: This study aimed to examine the reliability and validity of the Japanese version of the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children (PAQ-C) in Japanese children aged 9 to 12 years. Methods: A total of 210 children aged between 9 and 12 years participated. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were evaluated using Cronbach alpha coefficient and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), respectively. Validity was evaluated using athletic competence (AC), self-efficacy (SE), body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (%BF), cardiovascular fitness (CVF), and World Health Organization Health Behavior in School-aged Children (WHO HBSC) physical activity questionnaire. Results: Internal consistency was acceptable (alpha = 0.80) and test-retest reliability showed excellent agreement (ICC = 0.83). The PAQ-C score was significantly correlated with AC ( r = 0.41), SE ( r = 0.65), %BF ( r = 0.19), and CVF ( r = −0.32). The PAQ-C score of the active group classified by the WHO HBSC physical activity questionnaire (mean score ± standard deviation [SD] = 3.03 ± 0.57) was significantly higher than that of the inactive group (mean score ± SD = 2.27 ± 0.63, P < .01). Conclusions: The PAQ-C had acceptable reliability and validity. The PAQ-C is a useful instrument to evaluate physical activity for Japanese children aged 9 to 12 years.
