Direct linkSharma, Shreela V.; Chuang, Ru-Jye; Skala, Katherine; Atteberry, Heather – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2011
The purpose of this study is describe the initial feasibility, reliability, and validity of an instrument to measure physical activity in preschoolers using direct observation. The System for Observing Fitness Instruction Time for Preschoolers was developed and tested among 3- to 6-year-old children over fall 2008 for feasibility and reliability…

Ocker, Liette B.; Lam, Eddie T. C.; Jensen, Barbara E.; Zhang, James J. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2007
The study was designed to examine the construct validity and internal consistency reliability of the Eating Attitudes Test (EAT) using a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Two widely adopted EAT models were tested: three-factor (Dieting, Bulimia and Food Preoccupation, and Oral Control) with 26 items (Garner, Olmsted, Bohr, & Garfinkel, 1982),…

Robertson-Wilson, Jennifer; Levesque, Lucie; Holden, Ronald R. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2007
This study was designed to develop the Questionnaire Assessing School Physical Activity Environment (Q--SPACE) based on student perceptions. Twenty-eight items rated on 4-point Likert scales were administered to 244 middle school students in 9 schools. Exploratory factor analysis was used to evaluate the underlying structure of the items and 2…

Giacobbi, Peter R., Jr.; Hausenblas, Heather A.; Penfield, Randall D. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2005
The factorial and construct validity of the Exercise Imagery Inventory (EII) were assessed with 3 separate samples of participants. In Phase 1, a 41-item measure was administered to 504 undergraduate students. Exploratory factor analysis supported a 4-factor model that explained 65% of the variance. In Phase 2, a 19-item measure was administered…

Rhodes, Ryan E.; Matheson, Deborah H.; Blanchard, Chris M. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2006
The standard response format for self-reported exercise-behavior measurement is the continuous open scale, but popular social cognitive theories use fixed graded scales, a noncorrespondent format. Benefits of using continuous open scales for social cognitive constructs include scale correspondence with the behavior measure, the potential of…
