Accuracy of Estimating Step Counts and Intensity Using Accelerometers in Older People With or Without Assistive Devices.

abstract：:Although much has been learned about the global determinants of physical activity in adults, there has been a lack of specific focus on gender, age, and urban/rural differences. In this church-based community sample of Appalachian adults (N = 1,239), the primary correlates of physical activity included age, gender, ob...
