Description

Demonstrates use of a "consensus method" whereby 10 methods for estimating time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity are averaged. In this sample of adults wearing a hip-worn ActiGraph, mean absolute error was 4.2 min, compared to 4.9-12.3 min for individual classification methods.

Development/Validation

Sample: 30 (15 males) healthy adults, 18-79 years of age

Setting: Laboratory

Activities: Activities of daily living, cycling, walking and running, resistance exercise, stairs, stationary behaviors

Criterion: Activity type

Accelerometer(s): ActiGraph GT9X on right hip

Validation approach: Comparison to criterion

Phase Designation

(What's this?)

This model is in Phase 1 and 2.
