“…For overall METmins, the moderate concordance between device-based and self-reported measures reported in this study was higher than the correlation previously observed in several other clinical (ρ = 0.43 vs. r = 0.30 and r = 0.37) [ 9 , 13 ] and healthy populations (ρ = 0.43 vs. r = 0.34 and r = 0.09) [ 35 , 36 ] that have also used the IPAQ. The agreement between the IPAQ and activity monitors for measurement of METmins was higher than in previous validation studies which, along with the fact that this measure accounts for all activity (MPA, VPA, walking), highlights the relevance of this measure in the orthopaedic trauma population.…”

“…For sitting time, our study and previous studies in clinical and healthy populations have shown slight to fair correlation between self-reported using the IPAQ and device-based measures (ρ = 0.38 vs. r = 0.36 and r = 0.15) [ 9 , 38 ] and an underestimation of device-measured sitting time [ 38 ]. Despite this, sitting remains an important outcome to measure in people with an orthopaedic injury.…”

“…The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ) has been widely used as a self-reported measure of physical activity and sitting time. The IPAQ’s validity has been assessed in a range of clinical [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ] and healthy [ 12 ] populations. However, the IPAQ has not been validated against device-based measures in people with injuries.…”

Orthopaedic injury can lead to decreased physical activity. Valid measures for assessing physical activity are therefore needed in this population. The aim of this study was to determine the agreement and concordance between the International Physical Activity Questionnaire–Short Form (IPAQ) and device-measured physical activity and sitting time in orthopaedic injury patients. Adults with isolated upper or lower limb fracture (n = 46; mean age of 40.5 years) wore two activity monitors (ActiGraph wGT3X-BT and activPAL) for 10 days, from 2 weeks post-discharge. The IPAQ was also completed for a concurrent 7-day period. Lin’s concordance correlation coefficients and Bland–Altman plots were calculated to compare walking/stepping time, total METmins, and sitting time. The IPAQ overestimated device-derived walking time (mean difference = 2.34 ± 7.33 h/week) and total METmins (mean difference = 767 ± 1659 METmins/week) and underestimated sitting time (mean difference = −2.26 ± 3.87 h/day). There was fair concordance between IPAQ-reported and device-measured walking (ρ = 0.34) and sitting time (ρ = 0.38) and moderate concordance between IPAQ-reported and device-measured METmins (ρ = 0.43). In patients with orthopaedic injury, the IPAQ overestimates physical activity and underestimates sitting time. Higher agreement was observed in the forms of activity (walking, total PA and sitting) commonly performed by this patient group.

“…Recently, the IPAQ-SF demonstrated moderate and acceptable levels of criterion validity and user sensitivity for use with adults with visual impairments and has demonstrated moderate correlations with objective measures (from r = 0.38 to r = 0.57; Marmeleira, Laranjo, Marques, & Batalha, 2013;Sadowska & Krzepota, 2015). The SF version of the IPAQ was selected for this study, as opposed to the long form, because validation information regarding the utilization of the long form for individuals with visual impairments is currently unavailable.…”

Little is known about what factors influence physical activity participation for adult-aged individuals with visual impairments. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the impact of sociodemographic factors on the physical activity participation of adults with visual impairments. The international physical activity questionnaire-short form and a socio-demographic factor questionnaire were distributed to individuals with visual impairments. A total of 176 adults (M age = 47.04, 52.8% female) completed the questionnaires. Physical activity and socio-demographic variables were analyzed descriptively and relationships were explored using correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. On average, participants reported 413.79 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and 2058.52 minutes of sedentary active per week. A significant amount of variance of physical activity was explained by the socio-demographic variables in this study. Of the socio-demographic variables measured, only gender emerges as a significant positive predictor of total weekly physical activity. The results of this study both affirm and conflict with previous research. Unlike previous research focusing on those with visual impairments, this study demonstrated that gender was an important predictor of physical activity. This finding is consistent with population-wide data on individuals without disabilities in the United States.

“…Specifically, they found that people with vision loss not only spend a comparatively smaller percentage of the day being physically active but also spend an average of less than 7% of their total active time each day at moderate or high intensities of PA (Holbrook et al, 2009). Furthermore, individuals with VI tend to spend the majority of their leisure time in sedentary activities, such as watching television or playing computer games (Holbrook et al, 2009; Marmeleira, Laranjo, Marques, & Batalha, 2013; Swanson, Bodner, Sawyer, & Allman, 2012).…”

This study examined physical activity (PA) patterns in adults with visual impairments (VI) using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form, assessing moderate physical activity (MPA), vigorous physical activity (VPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). A total of 115 individuals (age: 36.1 ± 13.9 years, body mass index [BMI]: 28 ± 6.9 kg/m 2) with VI completed the study. One-way analyses of variance (ANOVAs) were performed on VI (B1, B2, B3, and B4), collapsed VI (blind [B1] vs VI [B2-B4]), gender, and BMI across PA. A 2 × 4 factor ANOVA examined the impact of gender and BMI on PA. B2 walked more than B1 (p = .021) and walk time was less in B1 (p = .021) than VI. Males accumulated more MPA (p = .002) and MVPA (p = .008), and a greater percentage of males acquired recommended PA (p = .008). Overweight participants acquired more VPA than normal-weight participants (p = .020). A main effect for gender (p = .000) and interaction between gender and BMI (p = .049) were identified with MPA. Differences in PA based on VI may be a result of barriers specific to B1, suggesting the need for education in this population.
