The purposes of this study were (a) to validate the Rockport Fitness Walking Test (RFWT) in college students, and (b) to develop prediction equations on this college sample if the RFWT proved invalid. Subjects were administered a test to determine maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) on a treadmill and the RFWT in a field testing environment. Comparisons were made between the measured VO2max and the VO2max predicted from the equations of Kline, Porcari, Hintermeister, et al. (1987). The Kline, Porcari, Hintermeister, et al. equations overpredicted VO2max by 16-18% in the males and by 22-23% in the females. The correlation coefficients between the measured and predicted VO2max values ranged from .39 to .59. Derivation of new prediction equations using the same variables as in the RFWT produced only one equation that had sufficient accuracy to recommend its use. It was concluded that the original RFWT overpredicts VO2max in college students and should not be used with this population.
（a）在大学生中验证罗克波特健身步行测试（RFWT）；（b）如果RFWT被证明无效，则针对该大学生样本开发预测方程。受试者在跑步机上接受了一项测试，以确定最大摄氧量（VO2max），并在现场测试环境中进行了RFWT。将测量的VO2max与根据克莱恩、波卡里、欣特迈斯特等人（1987年）的方程预测的VO2max进行了比较。克莱恩、波卡里、欣特迈斯特等人的方程在男性中对VO2max的预测高估了16%-18%，在女性中高估了22%-23%。测量的和预测的VO2max值之间的相关系数在0.39至0.59之间。使用与RFWT相同的变量推导新的预测方程，仅产生了一个具有足够准确性以推荐使用的方程。得出的结论是，原始的RFWT高估了大学生的VO2max，不应在该人群中使用。
