BACKGROUND
Physical inactivity is a global concern, but diverse physical activity measures in use prevent international comparisons. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was developed as an instrument for cross-national monitoring of physical activity and inactivity.
METHODS
Between 1997 and 1998, an International Consensus Group developed four long and four short forms of the IPAQ instruments (administered by telephone interview or self-administration, with two alternate…

The long version of the IPAQ has acceptable validity for the measurement of total and vigorous physical activity, and good reliability coefficients for application in the Spanish population studied here.

Reproducibility and validity of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire in adolescents
- Psychology
- 2005
Data provide evidence that, in adolescents of both genders and older than 14 years, the IPAQ have acceptable measurement properties for monitoring levels of habitual physical activity, and among younger adolescents (< 14 years old, findings indicate that the use of the IPAZ short form presents some limitations.

IPAQ short and long versions show acceptable reliability properties in the Italian adult setting and appear to have similar performance in terms of internal consistency and validity.

The count versus METs relationship for accelerometry was found to be dependent on the type of activity performed, which may be due to the inability of accelerometers to detect increased energy cost from upper body movement, load carriage, or changes in surface or terrain.

Estimation models that relate hip and wrist accelerometer data to energy expenditure (EE) in field and laboratory settings are established and the small amount of additional accuracy gained from the wrist accelerometers is offset by the extra time required to analyze the data and the cost of the accelerometer.

In the future, efforts should be directed towards developing an objective motion sensor as inexpensive as a pedometer but with the data acquisition capabilities of the CSA or Tritrac accelerometer.

The relationship between activity counts and total daily energy expenditure seems to be affected by different training conditions, therefore these circumstances have to be carefully considered in the interpretation of activity monitor data.

It would appear from this article that the only physical activity that matters is leisure-time physical activity, which may well lead to erroneous assumptions about the role of physical exertion in the health status of various demographic groups.
