Correspondence between the Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire (SIMPAQ) and accelerometer-based physical activity in inpatients treated for major depressive disorders in comparison to non-depressed controls. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Major depressive disorders (MDD) significantly impact global health, and while standard medications may not always be effective, incorporating physical activity (PA) shows promise in alleviating depressive symptoms.
  • This study involved 178 inpatients with MDD and 97 controls, using both self-reported PA and accelerometer data over one week to evaluate PA levels and the relationship between them.
  • Results indicated a disparity between self-reported and measured PA, with inpatients reporting higher activity levels despite lower actual PA, highlighting challenges in accurately assessing PA and the need for varied assessment methods.

Article Abstract

Introduction: Major depressive disorders (MDD) are a leading health concern worldwide. While first line medication treatments may fall short of desired therapeutic outcomes, physical activity (PA) interventions appear to be a promising and cost-effective add-on to improve symptoms of depression. This study aimed to address challenges in the assessment of PA in inpatients treated for MDD by examining the correspondence of self-reported and accelerometer-based PA.

Methods: In 178 inpatients treated for MDD (mean age:  = 41.11 years, SD = 12.84; 45.5% female) and 97 non-depressed controls (mean age:  = 35.24 years, SD = 13.40; 36.1% female), we assessed self-reported PA via the Simple Physical Activity Questionnaire (SIMPAQ) for one week, followed by a week where PA was monitored using an accelerometer device (Actigraph wGT3x-BT). Additionally, we examined correlations between PA levels assessed with the SIMPAQ and exercise determinants in both groups.

Results: Descriptively, inpatients treated for MDD showed lower levels of light PA on accelerometer-based measures, whereas they self-reported increased levels of certain types of PA on the SIMPAQ. More importantly, there was only a small degree of correspondence between self-reported and actigraphy-based PA levels in both in patients ( = 0.15,  < 0.05) and controls ( = 0.03, ns). Only few significant correlations were found for self-reported PA (SIMPAQ subscores) and perceived fitness, whereas self-reported PA and estimated VOmax were unrelated. Furthermore, only weak (and mostly statistically non-significant) correlations were found between exercise determinants and SIMPAQ-based exercise behavior in both populations.

Discussion: Our findings emphasize the intricate challenges in the assessment of PA, not only in inpatients treated for MDD, but also in non-depressed controls. Our findings also underline the necessity for a diversified data assessment. Further efforts are needed to refine and improve PA questionnaires for a more accurate data assessment in psychiatric patients and healthy controls.
