International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and New Zealand Physical Activity Questionnaire (NZPAQ): A doubly labelled water validation
BACKGROUND Accurate measurement of physical activity is a pre-requisite for monitoring population health and for evaluating effective interventions. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is used as a comparable and standardised self-report measure of habitual physical activity of populations from different countries and socio-cultural contexts. The IPAQ has been modified to p...
متن کاملUse of Doubly Labeled Water to Validate a Physical Activity Questionnaire Developed for the Japanese Population
BACKGROUND No study has attempted to use the doubly labeled water (DLW) method to validate a physical activity questionnaire administered to a Japanese population. The development and refinement of such questionnaires require that physical activity components related to physical activity level be examined. METHODS Among 226 Japanese men and women 20 to 83 years of age, total energy expenditur...
متن کاملPhysical Activity Assessment in an Italian Adult Population using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire
Introduction: The international physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) was developed as an instrument for cross-national monitoring of physical activity (PA) and inactivity. The aim of this study was to determine the PA level in a sample of Italian population. Methods: In total 957 adults (56% women) aged 19-65 years were randomly recruited. PA was assessed using the long form of the IPAQ (IPAQ...
متن کاملEnergy requirements and physical activity in free-living older women and men: a doubly labeled water study.
Determinants of daily energy needs and physical activity are unknown in free-living elderly. This study examined determinants of daily total energy expenditure (TEE) and free-living physical activity in older women (n = 51; age = 67 +/- 6 yr) and men (n = 48; age = 70 +/- 7 yr) by using doubly labeled water and indirect calorimetry. Using multiple-regression analyses, we predicted TEE by using ...
متن کاملPregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire.
We appreciate the interest of Brett et al. 1 in our Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire (PPAQ). 2 The highest priority in designing a questionnaire for epidemiologic practice is the ability of the questionnaire to rank individuals (i.e., to discriminate among individuals with respect to their physical activity) rather than to estimate their absolute energy expenditure. Therefore, in devel...
