exception is a qualitative study conducted in New Zealand that sought to understand how university students make sense of personal data generated by a Fitbit ( Clark & Driller, 2020 ). Results emphasized the sensory, emotional, and social implications of self-tracking not often addressed in the literature

reduction achieved from a TKA. PA is most likely affected by factors such as motivation, habits, lifestyle, and socioeconomic factors. These barriers complicate improvement of PA, and in a qualitative study, Harding et al. found that despite an increased capacity to be physically active after a total hip

small amounts of time and limited materials, allowing for effective testing of large groups of children ( Klein et al., 2012 ) the product-oriented scoring method only measures the final product of each test (i.e., distance jumped, total speed). This does not allow for qualitative, or “process
Twelve-Month Stability of Accelerometer-Measured Occupational and Leisure-Time Physical Activity and Compensation Effects

, age, sex, and race/ethnicity were conducted to test whether previously detected compensation effects in Time 1 held for Time 2. ICCs also were calculated for sedentary time. Rationale for Qualitative Ratings of Stability In other studies interdevice reliability for accelerometers is extremely high
