Abstract:
|
Self-reports of physical activity are often prone to considerable measurement error and biases. Measurements of physical activity obtained from monitoring devices, such as accelerometers, tend to provide more objective (unbiased) measurements of physical activity. In this presentation, we investigate the associations between objective measurements of physical activity and self-reported physical activity outcomes in a student survey. Data were collected from students that participated in the Randomized Experiment of Playworks Study.
