Researchers investigated the #ActiGraph ActiLife step algorithm's sensitivity to sampling frequency (Hz). 🔑findings: 1. The #algorithm is sensitive to Hz; 30 Hz is the most accurate setting. 2. MAVM algorithm isn’t affected but is less precise. 🔗 https://t.co/9EE3rSQR9M

🏃New research shows interesting differences in outdoor vs indoor #play fragmentation patterns as measured by #accelerometer. 👀 Transition probability: outdoor play = fewer transitions to inactivity & more MVPA than indoor play. 🔗 https://t.co/D443lzu05U @KimberlyClev @pfeif51

❔Do you use #activPAL monitors to measure steps/day? ✅If so, check out this study investigating step count accuracy of activPAL4 in walking & running speeds. 😯There are some interesting differences across the range of speeds included in this study! 🔗 https://t.co/Mcmedr9qrb
