| Question | Answer |
| DEFINE Recall Survey/questionnaire | SUBJECTIVE Individual recalls PA and sedentary behaviours over a specified time period |
| PROS Recall Survey/questionnaire | Provides context quickly administered to large groups cost effective not reactive |
| CONS Recall Survey/questionnaire | Social desirability low validity compared to objective methods not suitable for under 10's or intellectual disability |
| DEFINE Proxy survey | SUBJECTIVE When a parent or guarding fills in a survey for someone who lacks the cognitive ability to fill it in accurately themselves. |
| PROS Proxy Survey | cost effective easily administered to large group not reactive |
| CONS Proxy Survey | Low validity of compared to objective methods person filling in the survey may not be with them all the time (have to estimate) |
| DEFINE Diary or log | SUBJECTIVE Individual maintains a diary of their PA or sedentary behaviour over a period of time |
| PROS Diary or Log | cost effective easily administered to large group low burden provides contextual information |
| CONS Diary or Log | Highly reactive Unsuitable for <10ys or mentaly disabled |
| DEFINE Direct observation | OBJECTIVE Involves watching people objectively & noting specific behaviours or activities they participate in |
| PROS Direct observation | Qualitative & quantitative info provides context used in a number of settings software can be used to analyse data |
| CONS Direct observation | Difficult to use on large groups intrusive high labor/time-intensive reactive (seeing someone watching you) lots of training required |
| DEFINE Pedometer | OBJECTIVE Worn on the hip and assess how many steps a person takes |
| PROS Pedometer | Inexpensive small and lightweight non invasive administer to large groups can promote behaviour change provides immediate feedback |
| CONS Pedometer | Assess only one action (walk/run) can't measure intensity, duration, frequency highly reactive provides no context |
| DEFINE Accelerometer | OBJECTIVE a device worn on the waist or wrist that uses accelerations to calculate effort |
| PROS Accelerometer | Information on intensity frequency & duration measure PA and sedentary behaviour noninvasive (small/lightweight) |
| CONS Accelerometer | Expensive not suitable for large groups no contextual info most models not aquatic low level reactivity initially |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines Chilren 0-5 year olds | PHYSICAL ACTIVITY 1-5yo engage in 3+ hours everyday SEDENTARY BEHAVIOUR no electronics for 0-2yo <1 hour of electronics for 2-5yo |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines Children 5-12 year olds | PHYSICAL ACTIVITY frequency: everyday intensity: moderate-vigorous duration: 60+ mins up to several hours SEDENTARY BEHAVIOUR no more than 2 hours of electronics unless educational Break up long periods of sitting as often as possible. |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines Youth 12-18 year olds | PHYSICAL ACTIVITY frequency: everyday intensity: moderate-vigorous duration: 60+ mins SEDENTARY BEHAVIOUR no more than 2 hours of electronics unless educational Break up long periods of sitting as often as possible. |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines adults (18-65) | PHYSICAL ACTIVITY frequency: most days (5+ days) D/I: 2.5-5hrs Mod or 1.25-2.5 vig or a combos SEDENTARY BEHAVIOUR Minimise the amount of time spent in prolonged sitting. Break up long periods of sitting as often as possible. |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines Older Adults 65+ years old | PHYSICAL ACTIVITY frequency: most days (5+ days) intensity: moderate duration: 30+ mins be active everyday in as many ways as possible |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines overweight and obese children and youth | more PA than currently engaging in |
| Australian Physical Activity & Sedentary Behaviour Guidelines overweight and obese adults | 60 minutes everyday once weight lost 60-90 minutes to avoid weight regain |
| DIMENSION Type | description of PA and its domain |
| DIMENSION Intensity | amount of effort required for the activity (low, mod, vig) |
| DIMENSION Fequency | sessions or days per week |
| DIMENSION Duration | length of session or length of PA during the week |
| Objective measures | pedometers accelerometers direct observation |
| Subjective measures | recall survey proxy survey questionnaires diaries and logs |
| Sedentary behavior | Low levels of energy expenditure (1-2 METS) someone who is highly active can also be highly sedentary, recommendations for 0-5, 5-12, 12-18 |
