Objective Energy expenditure is an indicator that comprehensively reflects the amount of physical activity. Fitness wristbands are used to monitor the energy expenditure of human activities in the fitness field. Among the fitness wristbands popular in China, Honor and Lifesense rank in the top list. However, there was no research on the reliability and validity of these two wristbands in measuring the energy expenditure. This study aims to evalute the reliability and validity of the two fitness wristbands (Honor and Lifesense) in measuring the energy expenditure in inline and shuttle running. Methods 18 male collegiate students (age: 22.4±2.5yrs, height: 177±7cm, mass: 69.3.±8.4kg) volunteered to participate in two four-stage incremental inline running tests (8km/h, 10km/h, 12km/h, 14km/h) and two 20m four-stage incremental shuttle running test (6km/h, 8km/h, 10km/h, 12km/h). The duration of each stage was 5 min, and intermittent per stage was 1 min. Honor B3（GMN-BX9, Honor, China） and Lifesense Mombo2（LS417-B, Lifesense, China）fitness wristbands was utilized to measure the energy expenditure of each stage in incremental inline and shuttle running. A portable spirometric system (K4b2, Cosmed, Italy) was utilized to measure the ventilator information during the test. The energy expenditure was converted into equivalent units (kcal) according to the measured respiratory quotient coefficient. The repeat measuremented reliability test was carried out on the energy expenditure indicators measured by the fitness wristbands in the twice incremental inline running and the shuttle running. The energy expenditure calculated by the portable gas metabolic instrument was comparedwith those  measured by Honor and Lifesense fitness wristbands. Results The result test-retest reliability found that the Honor and Lifesense fitness wristbands had well correlations between the two tests at a speed of 8km/h, 10km/h, 12km/h in inline running, and 8km/h, and 10km/h in shuttle running (r=0.44~0.93, P<0.05), but the correlation was not well at 6km/h in shuttle running (r<0.43, P>0.05). The Honor wristband correlation (r=0.83~0.93, P<0.05) was higher than the Lifesense fitness wristbands (r=0.44~0.60, P<0.05) at 8km/h, 10km/h, and 12km/h in inline running and at 8km/h, and 10km/h in shuttle running. The correlation coefficients of the two fitness wristbands at 8km/h and 10km/h in inline running (r=0.52~0.93, P<0.05) were both higher than those in shuttle running (r=0.44~0.83, P<0.05). The energy expenditure measured by K4b2 and the two kinds fitnees wristband was significantly different (P<0.05), except at 12km/h in inline running and 10km/h in shuttle running (P > 0.05).  Conclusions Honor and Lifesense wristbands have acceptable reliability in measuring energy expenditure at 8, 10, 12km/h in inline and shuttle running, with the fore slightly higher than the after. The two wristbands have higher reliability in measuring the energy expenditure in inline running than in shuttle running. The validity of measuring the energy expenditure with the two fitness wristbands is acceptable at 12km/h in inline running and at 10km/h in shuttle running, but not at other speed.

The goal of this study was to develop a Korean version of the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (K-GPAQ) and to examine its reliability and validity. The English version of the GPAQ was translated to the Korean language (K-GPAQ) via forward–backward translation. Reliability of the K-GPAQ was evaluated using a one-week interval test–retest method with 115 individuals. Criterion-related validity of the K-GPAQ was examined with 199 participants using accelerometers. Cohen’s kappa and Spearman’s correlation coefficients were used to measure test–retest reliability and validity, respectively. A Bland–Altman analysis was used to assess agreement between physical activity (PA) levels measured via K-GPAQ and the accelerometer. Coefficients for the reliability of the K-GPAQ showed moderate agreement for recreational PA and slight agreement for work-related PA (Cohen’s kappa: 0.60–0.67 for recreational PA and 0.30–0.38 for work-related PA and Spearman’s rho: 0.27–0.47 for work-related PA and 0.53–0.70 for recreational PA). Criterion validity of the total amount of PA, as measured by the K-GPAQ and the accelerometer, showed a weak but significant correlation ( r = 0.34, p < 0.01). The K-GPAQ is a reliable and valid questionnaire to measure PA although K-GPAQ overestimated PA levels.

Purpose. To examine psychometric properties of a Commitment to Physical Activity Scale for Adolescents (CPASA). Design. Two test-retest studies and a prospective study, approved by a university institutional review board, were conducted in midwestern U.S. urban areas. Setting. The first test-retest study occurred in four community centers, the second test-retest study took place in a community school, and the prospective study occurred in eight middle schools. Subjects. To measure commitment at baseline and 1 week later, 51 girls in the first test-retest study completed an original 26-item scale, and 91 in the second test-retest study completed a revised 11-item scale. In the prospective study, 503 girls completed the 11-item scale. Measures. Commitment was measured via the CPASA. After completing the CPASA, girls in the prospective study wore ActiGraph GT3X-plus accelerometers that measured light, moderate, and vigorous physical activity (LMVPA) and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Analysis. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were estimated. Both exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were conducted to cross-validate the factor structure. Results. For the 11-item CPASA, Cronbach α ranged from .81 to .82, and test-retest reliability was .88. Both EFA and CFA indicated a single factor. The scale was significantly correlated with LMVPA (r = .10) and MVPA (r = .11). Conclusion. The 11-item CPASA demonstrated acceptable reliability and validity with girls.

Physical activity (PA) is a component of total energy expenditure. PA and PA energy expenditure (PAEE) can be estimated by objective techniques (OTs). However, the use of questionnaires is frequent in clinical settings and epidemiological studies. We conducted a search on PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases to perform a review of studies reporting the reliability and validity of PA questionnaires validated against OTs—doubly labeled water (DLW) or accelerometers—in free-living adults. We selected original articles published between 2009 and 2019 that reported validation studies of PA questionnaires. We identified 53 studies that fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Four PA questionnaires were validated against DLW and the remaining against accelerometers. Three questionnaires were compared with both DLW and accelerometer results. The correlation between questionnaire-estimated PAEE and DLW results ranged from r = .22 to r = .46, while that between questionnaire-estimated total PA (TPA) and accelerometer results ranged from r = .11 to r = .54 The intraclass correlation coefficients were between .56 and .84. Despite having good reliability, most of the questionnaires included in this review have shown limited validity for estimating TPA in adults. OTs should be considered as a first option, when possible. Further research is warranted on techniques to obtain more accurate PA and PAEE estimates.

The purpose of this study was to develop a brief physical activity interview for older adults (Phone-FITT) and evaluate its test–retest reliability and validity. Summary scores were derived for household, recreational, and total PA. Reliability was evaluated in a convenience sample from a fall-prevention study (N= 43, 79.4 ± 2.9 years, 51% male), and validity, in a random sample of individuals in older adult exercise programs (N= 48, 77.4 ± 4.7 years, 25% male). Mean time to complete the Phone-FITT was 10 min for participants sampled from exercise programs. Evaluation of test–retest reliability indicated substantial to almost perfect agreement for all scores, with intraclass correlation coefficients (95% confidence intervals) ranging from .74 (.58–.85) to .88 (.8–.94). For validity, Spearman’s rho correlations of Phone-FITT scores with accelerometer counts ranged from .29 (.01–.53) to .57 (.34–.73). Correlations of Phone-FITT recreational scores with age and seconds to complete a self-paced step test ranged from –.29 (–.53 to –.01) to –.45 (–.68 to –.14). This study contributes preliminary evidence of the reliability and validity of the Phone-FITT.

Background:The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of 2 currently available physical activity surveys for assessing time spent in sedentary behavior (SB) in older adults.Methods:Fifty-eight adults (≥65 years) completed the Yale Physical Activity Survey for Older Adults (YPAS) and Community Health Activities Model Program for Seniors (CHAMPS) before and after a 10-day period during which they wore an ActiGraph accelerometer (ACC). Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) examined test-retest reliability. Overall percent agreement and a kappa statistic examined YPAS validity. Lin’s concordance correlation, Pearson correlation, and Bland-Altman analysis examined CHAMPS validity.Results:Both surveys had moderate test-retest reliability (ICC: YPAS = 0.59 (P < .001), CHAMPS = 0.64 (P < .001)) and significantly underestimated SB time. Agreement between YPAS and ACC was low (κ = −0.0003); however, there was a linear increase (P < .01) in ACC-derived SB time across YPAS response categories. There was poor agreement between ACC-derived SB and CHAMPS (Lin’s r = .005; 95% CI, −0.010 to 0.020), and no linear trend across CHAMPS quartiles (P = .53).Conclusions:Neither of the surveys should be used as the sole measure of SB in a study; though the YPAS has the ability to rank individuals, providing it with some merit for use in correlational SB research.

The purpose of this study was to validate a new interview-administered physical activity questionnaire (Assessment of Physical Activity in Frail Older People; APAFOP) in older people with and without cognitive impairment. The authors assessed feasibility, validity, and test–retest reliability in 168 people (n= 78 with,n= 88 without cognitive impairment). Concurrent validity was assessed against an inertia-based motion sensor and an established questionnaire. Sensitivity to change was tested in an ongoing study in patients with mild to moderate dementia (n= 81). Assessment of physical activity by the APAFOP and the motion sensor correlated well in the total sample (TS; p= .705), as well as in the subsamples with cognitive impairment (CI;p= .585) and without CI (p= .787). Excellent feasibility with an acceptance rate of 100%, test–retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients ranging from .973 (TS) to .975 (CI) to .966 (no CI), and sensitivity to change (effect sizes: 0.35–1.47) were found in both subsamples.

Metabolic Energy Expenditure

AbstractAssessment of metabolic energy expenditure from indirect calorimetry is currently limited to sustained (>4 min) cyclic activities, because of steady-state requirements. This is problematic for patient populations who are unable to perform such sustained activities. Therefore, this study explores validity and reliability of a method estimating metabolic energy expenditure based on oxygen consumption (V̇O2) during short walking bouts. Twelve able-bodied adults twice performed six treadmill walking trials (1, 2 and 6 min at 4 and 5 km/h), while V̇O2 was measured. Total V̇O2 was calculated by integrating net V̇O2 over walking and recovery. Concurrent validity with steady-state V̇O2 was assessed with Pearson’s correlations. Test-retest reliability was assessed using intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland-Altman analyses. Total V̇O2 was strongly correlated with steady-state V̇O2 (r=0.91–0.99), but consistently higher. Test-retest reliability of total V̇O2 (ICC=0.65–0.92) was lower than or comparable to steady-state V̇O2 (ICC=0.83–0.92), with lower reliability for shorter trials. Total V̇O2 discriminated between gait speeds. Total oxygen uptake provides a useful measure to estimate metabolic load of short activities from oxygen consumption. Although estimates are less reliable than steady-state measurements, they can provide insight in the yet unknown metabolic demands of daily activities for patient populations unable to perform sustained activities.
