Barfield, J. P.; Rowe, David A.; Michael, Timothy J. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2004
A pedometer is a practical, inexpensive tool used to measure physical activity. Bassett et al. (1996) found that interinstrument consistency of the Yamax Digi-Walker was higher than four other pedometers when measuring distance walked in adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate the interinstrument consistency of the Yamax pedometer in…
