This study aimed to assess the agreement in physical activity (PA) estimates from Garmin Vivofit Jr. 3 (VFJ 3) and Fitbit Ace 3 (Ace 3) with a research-grade accelerometer (wGT3X-BT) in children under free-living conditions. Twenty-five children (Girls: 56%, Age: 10.1 ± 2.5 years, BMI: 17.1 ± 2.4 kg/m2) performed daily activities for 7 consecutive…

The agreement between a wearable inertial sensor (GYKO, G) and the force platform (P) was assessed by evaluating "test-retest" and "inter-rater reliability." Thirty-eight subjects were enrolled; the selected indices of balance were investigated over foot positions and (un)stable conditions. Intraclass correlation coefficient…

Daniel González-Devesa; José Carlos Diz-Gómez; Miguel Adriano Sanchez-Lastra; Aroa Otero Rodríguez; Carlos Ayán-Pérez – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
The aim of this study is to examine the available scientific evidence on the reliability and criterion validity of 6-minute run walk field-based test when administered to children and adolescents. Systematic searches were performed in three electronic databases (MEDLINE/PubMed, SPORTDiscuss and Scopus) from their inception until February 2024,…

Matthew T. Mahar; Hoyong Sung – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
Field-based tests of aerobic fitness that can be administered quickly and do not require maximal effort are desirable. The purpose was to develop and validate quarter-mile walk tests for 10--13-year-olds. Participants (N = 59) walked one mile on two different days. Walk times, heart rates, body mass, physical activity, and aerobic fitness were…

As part of a validation study of the Exercise Planning and Scheduling (EPS), and Goal-Setting (EGS) Scales, which were translated from English to Brazilian Portuguese, we aim to: present evidence of reliability and validity for the translated scale; and, explore the effects of non-labeled response categories of rating scales. The sample comprised…

Jesús Mellado-Berenguer; Manuel Monfort-Pañego – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
Several observation tools evaluate teaching quality in Physical Education (PE), but none of them cover the core competencies required to comprehensively assess whether the teacher is providing teaching quality in PE. The aim of this research is to develop, validate, and test the reliability of the System for Observing Teaching Competencies in…

Lindsey A. Nowland; Xihe Zhu; Justin A. Haegele – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a scale designed to measure physical educators' self-efficacy and sources of information to teach students with disabilities across different types of instructional placements for physical education. Scale construction consisted of four phases: (a) item development, (b) content validity, (c)…

Min Pan; Wei-Ting Hsu – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2025
Constraints-led approach (CLA) is widely used in physical education (PE). This four-phased study aimed to develop a self-report measurement of students' perceived constraints support in PE. The relationships among students' perceived constraints support, competence and novelty need satisfaction, motivation, effort, and engagement in PE were also…
