Yet, there is little research comparing subjective measures PA (SMPA, CHAMPS questionnaire) and objective measures of PA (SMPA, accelerometry) in older adults, 65 years+. Thus, the primary PURPOSE of this study is to examine the validity of the CHAMPS questionnaire and accelerometry data to assess PA in older adults 65 years+. The secondary purpose of this study is to determine if SMPA or SMPA is a better predictor of CF. METHODS: In sixty-five older adults (age: 77.1±7.9 years) we examined the relationship between SMPA and OMPA using partial correlations (controlling for age, gender, and BMI). Hierarchical regression was utilized to determine if SMPA or OMPA was a better predictor of CF. RESULTS: Both total and moderate-to-vigorous intensity (MVPA) OMPA and SMPA were correlated (p< 0.05). CF was correlated with: counts/min (r=0.38, p<0.01), OMPA MVPA (r=0.40, p<0.001), and sedentary:moderate minutes/day (r= -0.53, p<0.0001). Sedentary:moderate ratio, MVPA, and sedentary minutes/day contribute (p < 0.05) to predicting CF. CONCLUSIONS: This suggests that the CHAMPS questionnaire may serve as an acceptable proxy for OMPA. Our findings also show that OMPA is superior to SMPA for the prediction of CF. 2017-05-02 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493390190684977 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493390190684977 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
