An Open-Source Monitor-Independent Movement Summary for Accelerometer Data Processing.

Journal for the measurement of physical behaviour

John D, Tang Q, Albinali F, Intille S.
PMID: 34308270
J Meas Phys Behav. 2019 Dec;2(4):268-281. doi: 10.1123/jmpb.2018-0068.

BACKGROUND: Physical behavior researchers using motion sensors often use acceleration summaries to visualize, clean, and interpret data. Such output is dependent on device specifications (e.g., dynamic range, sampling rate) and/or are proprietary, which invalidate cross-study comparison of findings when...

Infant Leg Activity Intensity Before and After Naps.

Journal for the measurement of physical behaviour

Trujillo-Priego IA, Zhou J, Werner IF, Deng W, Smith BA.
PMID: 34109304

J Meas Phys Behav. 2020 Jun;3(2):110-117. doi: 10.1123/jmpb.2019-0049.

BACKGROUND: This study sought to compare three sensor-based wear-time estimation methods to conventional diaries for ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometers worn on the non-dominant wrist in early pregnancy.METHODS: Pregnant women (n= 108) wore ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometers for 7 days and recorded...

Agreement of sedentary behaviour metrics derived from hip-worn and thigh-worn accelerometers among older adults: with implications for studying physical and cognitive health.

Journal for the measurement of physical behaviour

Bellettiere J, Tuz-Zahra F, Carlson JA, Ridgers ND, Liles S, Greenwood-Hickman MA, Walker RL, LaCroix AZ, Jankowska MM, Rosenberg DE, Natarajan L.
PMID: 34708190
J Meas Phys Behav. 2021 Mar;4(1):79-88. doi: 10.1123/jmpb.2020-0036. Epub 2021 Feb 16.

Little is known about how sedentary behaviour (SB) metrics derived from hip-worn and thigh-worn accelerometers agree for older adults. Thigh-worn activPAL micro monitors were concurrently worn with hip-worn ActiGraph GT3X+ accelerometers (with SB measured using the 100 count-per-minute (cpm)...

Characteristics of a protocol to collect objective physical activity/sedentary behaviour data in a large study: Seniors USP (understanding sedentary patterns).

Journal for the measurement of physical behaviour

Dall PM, Skelton DA, Dontje ML, Coulter EH, Stewart S, Cox SR, Shaw RJ, Čukić I, Fitzsimons CF, Greig CA, Granat MH, Der G, Deary IJ, Chastin S.

The Seniors USP study measured sedentary behaviour (activPAL3, 9 day wear) in older adults. The measurement protocol had three key characteristics: enabling 24-hour wear (monitor location, waterproofing); minimising data loss (reducing monitor failure, staff training, communication); and quality assurance...
