Lopes, Marcus V. V.; da Costa, Bruno G. G.; Malheiros, Luís E. A.; Carvalho, Humberto M.; Crochemore-Silva, Inácio; Silva, Kelly S. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
This study examined the within- and between-day variability of time-segmented sedentary behavior (SB), light physical activity (LPA), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in adolescents. The sample comprised 154 adolescents (11-16 years old) from two public schools in Florianópolis, Brazil. The proportion of time spent in SB, LPA, and…

Hulteen, Ryan M.; True, Larissa; Kroc, Edward – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
The typical process for assessing inter-rater reliability is facilitated by training raters within a research team. Lacking is an understanding if inter-rater reliability scores "between" research teams demonstrate adequate reliability. This study examined inter-rater reliability between 16 researchers who assessed fundamental motor…

Faria, Fernanda R.; Howe, Cheryl A.; Sasaki, Jeffer E.; Canabrava, Karina L. R.; Guedes, Dartagnan P.; Marins, João Carlos B.; Mota Júnior, Rômulo José; Amorim, Paulo Roberto S. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
The purpose of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of the Power Walker® 610(PW) pedometer for step counting in children. The study sample was composed of 30 boys and 22 girls, from 8-13 years old. Participants were equipped with both a PW and a Digiwalker® SW-200(DW) pedometers and walked 400 m around an outdoor athletic track…

Nascimento-Junior, José Roberto Andrade do; Fortes, Leonardo de Sousa; Freire, Gabriel Lucas Morais; de Oliveira, Daniel Vicentini; Fiorese, Lenamar; Cronin, Lorcan Donal – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
This research adapted the Life Skills Scale for Sport (LSSS) into Portuguese and provided evidence for its construct validity. Study 1 included four translators and five academics who developed a Portuguese version of the LSSS (P-LSSS). During this study, evidence for the content and substantive aspects of construct validity was provided using an…

Crocetta, Tânia Brusque; Guarnieri, Regiani; Massetti, Thaís; da Silva, Talita Dias; de Almeida Barbosa, Renata Thaís; Ferreira de Lima Antão, Jennifer Yohanna; de Abreu, Luiz Carlos; Monteiro, Carlos Bandeira de Mello – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2019
The coincidence-anticipation timing (CAT) task assesses one facet of cognitive and motor performance and is used to understand the human visuo-motor system involved in intercepting the moving object. To assess the test-retest reliability and the concurrent validity in the "Bridge Games" package (Bridge) developed to assess the CAT task,…
