Abstract

PURPOSE: This study compared measurements of daily walking distance on the College Alumnus questionnaire (CAQ) and a pedometer. METHODS: A total of 96 men and women (25-70 yr of age) with a wide range of physical activity habits were studied. Physical activity index was computed from the College Alumnus questionnaire (PAI-CAQ) as the sum of the energy expended in stair climbing, walking, and sports and recreational physical activity. Data on walking distance were compared with values obtained from the Yamax electronic pedometer (DW-500B). Participants wore the pedometer for 7 consecutive days, except when sleeping, showering, or performing sports and recreational activities. RESULTS: Subjects underestimated their daily walking distance on the CAQ, compared with the pedometer (1.43 +/- 1.01 vs 4.17 +/- 1.61 km x d(-1)). The energy expended in walking was correspondingly lower on the CAQ, compared with the pedometer-derived values (555 +/- 405 versus 1608 +/- 640 kcal x wk(-1)). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that electronic pedometers are useful for examining questions about walking distance on physical activity questionnaires.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
