abstract = {The aim of this study is to review accelerometer wear
methods and correlations between accelerometry and physical
activity questionnaire data, depending on participant
characteristics.We included 57 articles about physical
activity measurement by accelerometry and questionnaires.
Criteria were to have at least 100 participants of at least
18 years of age with manuscripts available in English.
Accelerometer wear methods were compared. Spearman and
Pearson correlation coefficients between questionnaires and
accelerometers and differences between genders, age
categories, and body mass index (BMI) categories were
assessed.In most investigations, requested wear time was
seven days during waking hours and devices were mostly
attached on hips with waist belts. A minimum of four valid
days with wear time of at least ten hours per day was
required in most studies. Correlations (r = Pearson,
ρ = Spearman) of total questionnaire scores against
accelerometer measures across individual studies ranged from
r = 0.08 to ρ = 0.58 (P < 0.001) for men and
from r = -0.02 to r = 0.49 (P < 0.01) for women.
Correlations for total physical activity among participants
with ages ≤65 ranged from r = 0.04 to ρ = 0.47
(P < 0.001) and from r = 0.16 (P = 0.02) to
r = 0.53 (P < 0.01) among the elderly
(≥65 years). Few studies investigated stratification by
BMI, with varying cut points and inconsistent
results.Accelerometers appear to provide slightly more
consistent results in relation to self-reported physical
activity among men. Nevertheless, due to overall limited
consistency, different aspects measured by each method, and
differences in the dimensions studied, it is advised that
studies use both questionnaires and accelerometers to gain
the most complete physical activity information.},
