TL;DR: The findings suggest that the measurement method may have a significant impact on the observed levels of physical activity, which poses a problem for both reliance on self- report measures and for attempts to correct for self-report – direct measure differences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedentary behavior research network (SBRN) - terminology consensus project process and outcome
Mark S. Tremblay,Salomé Aubert,Joel D. Barnes,Travis J. Saunders,Valerie Carson,Amy E Latimer-Cheung,Sebastien F. M. Chastin,Sebastien F. M. Chastin,Teatske M. Altenburg,Mai J. M. Chinapaw +9 more
TL;DR: It is hoped that the definitions resulting from this comprehensive, transparent, and broad-based participatory process will result in standardized terminology that is widely supported and adopted, thereby advancing future research, interventions, policies, and practices related to sedentary behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of direct vs. self-report measures for assessing height, weight and body mass index: a systematic review
TL;DR: Overall, the data show trends of under‐reporting for weight and BMI and over-reporting for height, although the degree of the trend varies for men and women and the characteristics of the population being examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review of sedentary behaviour and health indicators in school-aged children and youth
Mark S. Tremblay,Allana G. LeBlanc,Michelle E. Kho,Travis J. Saunders,Richard Larouche,Rachel C. Colley,Gary S. Goldfield,Sarah Connor Gorber +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence suggests that daily TV viewing in excess of 2 hours is associated with reduced physical and psychosocial health, and that lowering sedentary time leads to reductions in BMI.

TL;DR: This work proposes that journal editors adopt a consistent definition of the term sedentary and require that all manuscripts published within their journal adhere to this common terminology, and suggests that authors use the term “inactive” to describe those who are performing insufficient amounts of MVPA.
