Introduction: Reducing sedentary behavior has emerged as an important health intervention strategy. Although hip-worn, and more recently wrist-worn, accelerometers are commonly used for measuring physical activity and sedentary behavior, they may not provide accurate measures of postural changes. The current study examined the validity of commonly used hip- and wrist-worn accelerometer cut points and the thigh-worn activPAL activity monitor for measuring sit-to-stand transitions as compared with direct observation in youth with overweight and obesity.
Methods: Nine children wore three activity monitors while being directly observed. The monitors included a hip- and wrist-worn ActiGraph and thigh-worn activPAL. The hip-worn ActiGraph was processed with the normal- and low-frequency filters and the inclinometer function. Cut points of ≤25 counts per 15-s epoch for the hip and ≤105 counts per 15-s epoch for the wrist were applied to the vertical axis to identify sit-to-stand transitions. Epoch-level absolute agreement, Bland-Altman plots, mixed-effects linear regression, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were investigated.
Results: The hip and wrist accelerometer cut points and the hip inclinometer function overestimated the number of hourly sit-to-stand transitions by approximately triple as compared with direct observation. ICC values between the ActiGraph methods and the direct observation were all <0.12. Sit-to-stand transitions assessed from activPAL were within 17% of direct observation; ICC was 0.26.
Conclusion: Despite the common use of the 100-count hip-worn accelerometer cut point for assessing sedentary time, these processing decisions should be used with caution for assessing sit-to-stand transitions. Future research should investigate other processing methods for ActiGraph data, and studies investigating postural changes should consider including devices such as activPAL.
