This study assessed the test-retest reliability and validity of the Adolescent Physical Activity Recall Questionnaire (APARQ) among 13- and 15-yr-old Australians.
Two studies were conducted using the same instrument. Self-reported participation in organized and nonorganized physical activity was summarized into four measures: a three-category measure of activity, a two-category measure, and estimated energy expenditure expressed as a continuous variable and as quintiles. The reliability study (N = 226) assessed strength of agreement for all measures between responses to two administrations of the questionnaire. The validity study (N = 2026) assessed the relationship between the APARQ and performance on the Multistage Fitness Test (MFT).
Reliability study: for the three-category measure, percent agreement ranged 67-83% and weighted kappa ranged 0.33-0.71. For the two-category measure, percent agreement ranged 76-90% and kappa ranged 0.25-0.74. For energy expenditure expressed as a continuous variable, the intraclass correlations coefficients were generally greater than 0.6 for grade 10 students, but most were below 0.5 for grade 8 students. Validity study: for the three-category measure, mean laps were higher in the adequately and vigorously active categories than the inactive category for girls, but only the mean laps in the vigorously active and inactive categories were significantly different for boys. For the two-category measure, mean laps were higher in the active category than the inactive category for all groups. Correlations between energy expenditure and MFT laps were 0.15, 0.21, 0.14, and 0.39 for grade 8 boys, grade 8 girls, grade 10 boys, and grade 10 girls, respectively.
The APARQ has acceptable to good reliability and acceptable validity, but further validation using other methods and in other population groups is required.
本研究评估了青少年身体活动回忆问卷（APARQ）在13岁和15岁澳大利亚人中的重测信度和效度。
使用同一工具进行了两项研究。自我报告的有组织和无组织身体活动参与情况被总结为四项指标：一项三类活动指标、一项两类指标，以及以连续变量和五分位数表示的估计能量消耗。信度研究（N = 226）评估了问卷两次施测的所有指标回答之间的一致性强度。效度研究（N = 2026）评估了APARQ与多阶段体能测试（MFT）成绩之间的关系。
信度研究：对于三类指标，一致百分比范围为67%-83%，加权kappa值范围为0.33-0.71。对于两类指标，一致百分比范围为76%-90%，kappa值范围为0.25-0.74。对于以连续变量表示的能量消耗，10年级学生的组内相关系数一般大于0.6，但8年级学生的大多数低于0.5。效度研究：对于三类指标，女孩中充分活动和剧烈活动类别的平均圈数高于不活动类别，但男孩中只有剧烈活动和不活动类别的平均圈数有显著差异。对于两类指标，所有组中活动类别的平均圈数均高于不活动类别。8年级男生、8年级女生、10年级男生和10年级女生的能量消耗与MFT圈数之间的相关性分别为0.15、0.21、0.14和0.39。
APARQ具有可接受至良好的信度和可接受的效度，但需要使用其他方法并在其他人群中进行进一步验证。
