Impact of Continuous Focal Sampling Time Thresholds on Physical Activity Metrics When Using Video-Recorded Direct Observation

Julian Martinez, John Staudenmayer, and Scott J. Strath

. The largest bias for both the 5- and 10-s time thresholds compared to the criterion 1-s time threshold occurred within the “Locomotion Movement” Posture domain (−5.0 min and 18.7 min respectively) and the “Other Behavior” behavior domain (−2.1 min and 15.4 min respectively). No biases were

The Intrinsic Properties of ActiGraph Counts and Alternatives

Jan Christian Brønd, Niels Christian Møller, and Anders Grøntved

reaction force (GRF) and internal forces (moving body segments). During the locomotion peak, GRF increases linearly with speed and is influenced by body weight, locomotion style, and loading rate ( Keller et al., 1996 ). Interestingly, the metabolic cost of locomotion is to some extent linear for walking

Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior, and Time in Bed Among Finnish Adults Measured 24/7 by Triaxial Accelerometry

The hip-worn accelerometer is not ideal for sleep assessment either, but it can capture both locomotion and most other large body movements in various activities with better accuracy than

Accelerometer Calibration: The Importance of Considering Functionality

Scott J. Strath, Taylor W. Rowley, Chi C. Cho, Allison Hyngstrom, Ann M. Swartz, Kevin G. Keenan, Julian Martinez, and John W. Staudenmayer

intensity from minute-by-minute accelerometer data during locomotion activities in healthy adults, there has been a steady evolution of accelerometer calibration approaches to improve estimates of PA metrics. This evolution has witnessed tremendous technological progression in wearable accelerometry, and
