Reliability and validity of CHAMPS self-reported sedentary-to-vigorous intensity physical activity in older adults.
J Phys Act Health. 2012; (2): 225-36
Recent research highlights the potential value of differentiating between categories of physical activity intensities as predictors of health and well-being. This study sought to assess reliability and concurrent validity of sedentary (ie, 1 METs), low-light (ie, >1 and ≤2 METs; eg, playing cards), high-light (ie, >2 and <3 METs; eg, light walking), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA, ≥3 METs), and "total activity" (≥2 METs) from the CHAMPS survey. Further, this study explored over-reporting and double-reporting.
