A comparison of self-reported and device measured sedentary behaviour in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sedentary behaviour (SB) is a risk factor for chronic disease and premature mortality. While many individual studies have examined the reliability and validity of various self-report measures for assessing SB, it is not clear, in general, how self-reported SB (e.g., questionnaires, logs, ecological momentary assessments (EMAs)) compares to device measures (e.g., accelerometers, inclinometers).

Objective

The primary objective of this systematic review was to compare self-report versus device measures of SB in adults.

Methods

Six bibliographic databases were searched to identify all studies which included a comparable self-report and device measure of SB in adults. Risk of bias within and across studies was assessed. Results were synthesized using meta-analys
