The 4-level questionnaire to assess leisure-time physical activity (PA) originally described by Saltin and Grimby has been extended to a 6 (or 7)-level questionnaire, especially for the elderly or other persons with a low level of PA, expanded to include household activities. There are currently two main versions, one used in Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian studies, and one with further modifications used in Finnish studies. In this review, predictive validity for mortality and different aspects of physical performance are demonstrated. In a study regarding concurrent validity in one of the Finnish versions, significant correlations with accelerometer-based PA variables are shown. The scale has been used in a number of studies concerning effects of different types of intervention, such as physical training and increased PA, or to describe the PA level in the studied cohort. In presenting and analyzing the data, different combinations of PA levels have been used. As there are major differences between the versions, validity studies cannot easily be transformed between them. Thus, it is suggested that a common consensus be reached with respect to details of the questionnaire.
评估休闲时间体力活动（PA）的四级问卷最初由 Saltin 和 Grimby 描述，现已扩展为六级（或七级）问卷，特别是针对老年人或体力活动水平较低的人，扩展到包括家务活动。目前有两个主要版本，一个用于瑞典、丹麦和挪威的研究，另一个在芬兰研究中进一步修改。在这篇综述中，展示了对死亡率和身体表现不同方面的预测效度。在一项关于其中一个芬兰版本的同时效度的研究中，显示与基于加速度计的 PA 变量有显著相关性。该量表已在多项研究中使用，涉及不同类型的干预措施的效果，如体育锻炼和增加 PA，或描述研究队列中的 PA 水平。在呈现和分析数据时，使用了 PA 水平的不同组合。由于版本之间存在重大差异，因此有效性研究不能轻易在它们之间转换。因此，建议就问卷的细节达成共识。
