Reexamination of Accelerometer Calibration with Energy Expenditure as Criterion: VO<sub>2net</sub> Instead of MET for Age-Equivalent Physical Activity Intensity

Reexamination of Accelerometer Calibration with Energy Expenditure as Criterion: VO<sub>2net</sub> Instead of MET for Age-Equivalent Physical Activity Intensity

Accelerometer calibration for physical activity (PA) intensity is commonly performed using Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) as criterion. However, MET is not an age-equivalent measure of PA intensity, which limits the use of MET-calibrated accelerometers for age-related PA investigations. We inves...
