Determining the Reliability of Several Consumer-Based Physical Activity Monitors
Limited research exists on the reliability of consumer-based physical activity monitors (CPAMs) despite numerous studies on their validity. Consumers often purchase CPAMs to assess their physical activity (PA) habits over time, emphasizing CPAM reliability more so than their validity; therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability of several CPAMs. In this study, 30 par...
متن کاملEvaluating Physical Activity Monitors for Use in Personal Health Research
We propose to evaluate end-user physical activity monitors that can record and display information such as distance, pace and/or cadence information, and physiological information such as current and average heart rate and calories burned. This evaluation will be conducted to aid us in framing high-level approaches for evaluating physical activity monitoring devices used in research systems and...
متن کاملValidity of Consumer-Based Physical Activity Monitors for Specific Activity Types.
PURPOSE Consumer-based physical activity (PA) monitors are popular for individual tracking of PA variables. However, current research has not examined how these monitors track energy expenditure (EE) and steps in distinct activities. This study examined the accuracy of the Fitbits One, Zip, and Flex and Jawbone UP24 for estimating EE and steps for specific activities and activity categories. ...
متن کاملAssessing physical activity using wearable monitors: measures of physical activity.
BACKGROUND Physical activity may be defined broadly as "all bodily actions produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle that increase energy expenditure above basal level." Physical activity is a complex construct that can be classified into major categories qualitatively, quantitatively, or contextually. The quantitative assessment of physical activity using wearable monitors is grounded in ...
متن کاملAssessment of laboratory and daily energy expenditure estimates from consumer multi-sensor physical activity monitors
Wearable physical activity monitors are growing in popularity and provide the opportunity for large numbers of the public to self-monitor physical activity behaviours. The latest generation of these devices feature multiple sensors, ostensibly similar or even superior to advanced research instruments. However, little is known about the accuracy of their energy expenditure estimates. Here, we as...
