This study explored definitions of sedentary behavior and examined the relationship between sitting time and physical inactivity using the sitting items from the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ).
Participants (N = 289, 44.6% male, mean age = 35.93) from 3 countries completed self-administered long- and short-IPAQ sitting items. Participants wore accelerometers; were classified as inactive (no leisure-time activity), insufficiently active, or meeting recommendations; and were classified into tertiles of sitting behavior.
Reliability of sitting time was acceptable for men and women. Correlations between total sitting and accelerometer counts/min <100 were significant for both long (r = .33) and short (r = .34) forms. There was no agreement between tertiles of sitting and the inactivity category (kappa = .02, P = .68).
Sedentary behavior should be explicitly measured in population surveillance and research instead of being defined by lack of physical activity.
本研究探讨了久坐行为的定义,并使用国际体力活动问卷(IPAQ)中的久坐项目检验了久坐时间与身体活动不足之间的关系。
来自3个国家的参与者(N = 289,男性占44.6%,平均年龄 = 35.93岁)完成了自我填写的IPAQ长表和短表中的久坐项目。参与者佩戴了加速度计;被分为不活动(无休闲时间活动)、活动不足或达到建议水平;并被分为久坐行为三分位数。
久坐时间的可靠性对男性和女性来说是可接受的。长表(r = .33)和短表(r = .34)中,总久坐时间与加速度计计数/分钟<100之间的相关性均显著。久坐三分位数与不活动类别之间没有一致性(kappa = .02,P = .68)。
在人群监测和研究中,应明确测量久坐行为,而不是通过缺乏身体活动来定义。
