Brief Summary:
Time-use epidemiology is a rapidly growing research area that aims to understand how individuals allocate their time to various activities throughout the day Accurate assessment of daily activity behaviors such as sleep sedentary behavior SB light physical activity LPA and moderate to vigorous physical activity MVPA is crucial for studying the associations between activity patterns and health outcomes To gather this information researchers often rely on self-report questionnaires and objective measures such as accelerometers to provide a comprehensive understanding of individuals activity levels
Recently a validated questionnaire known as the Daily Activity Behavior Questionnaire DABQ has been developed In a study comparing DABQ estimates with the activPAL4 accelerometer as the reference method good results regarding absolute agreement and consistency were obtained for sleep duration ICC 06 while the absolute agreement and consistency for SB LPA and MVPA estimates was lower ICC ranging from 022-047
It should be noted that this study acknowledges the limitation of not treating the data as compositional data Compositional data analysis accounts for the relative distribution of different activities and avoids the assumption of independence between behaviors Additionally the activPAL4 accelerometer used as the reference method in the study had its own strengths and weaknesses when compared to other objective measures such as the Actigraph Where ActivPAL4 is more used to differentiate between sitting and standing Actigraph is able to better classify activity intensities Moreover as recommended in different research I use the Actigraph in my PhD to objectively asses 24-hour movement behaviors
Given these considerations the aim of this study is to validate the DABQ against the Actigraph as the reference method Furthermore this study aims to analyze the data as compositional data which would provide a more comprehensive understanding of the interrelatedness of behaviors The hypothesis is that there will be moderate convergent validity between the DABQ and Actigraph allowing for accurate assessment of sleep duration SB LPA and MVPA By establishing the validity of the DABQ and considering the data as compositional researchers can utilize this questionnaire in time-use epidemiology studies which could be seen as an easy to use and cost-effective measurement method
