Compliance with wearing physical activity accelerometers in high school students.
BACKGROUND Accelerometer use in physical activity research has become increasingly popular but is prone to problems with missing data, which complicate the data reduction and analysis process. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of hypothesized compliance strategies on improving compliance with wearing a physical activity accelerometer in high school students. METHODS Each o...
متن کاملMeasuring Children's Physical Activity: Compliance Using Skin-Taped Accelerometers.
INTRODUCTION Accelerometer-based physical activity monitoring has become the method of choice in many large-scale physical activity (PA) studies. However, there is an ongoing debate regarding the placement of the device, the determination of device wear time, and how to solve a lack of participant compliance. The aim of this study was to assess the compliance of Axivity AX3 accelerometers taped...
متن کاملObjectively measured physical activity in urban alternative high school students.
INTRODUCTION Alternative high school (AHS) students are an underserved population of youth at greater risk for poor health behaviors and outcomes. Little is known about their physical activity patterns. PURPOSE : The purpose of this study was to describe 1) physical activity levels of students attending alternative high schools (AHS) in St. Paul/Minneapolis, MN, and 2) compliance with wearing...
متن کاملPhysical activity assessment with accelerometers in children.
Accelerometers for movement registration have the potential to reflect the volume, pattern, intensity, type, and energy expenditure of physical activity(1,2). Developments are still ongoing with regard to reduction of the size of the instruments, lengthening of battery life and translation of the output to meaningful information for the user. Instruments with the capacity for most or all functi...
متن کامل[Physical activity and sedentary behavior among adolescent high school students].
OBJECTIVE To identify the prevalence of factors associated with insufficient physical activity levels and sedentary behavior among adolescents. METHODS In this cross-sectional study 4,210 students (14-19 years old) attending public high-schools were selected using random two-stage cluster sampling. Data were collected by using the Global School-based Student Health Survey. Subjects who report...
