Objectives: To investigate levels of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in a large sample of persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) and controls using accelerometry as a measure of physical activity, and to compare the rates of meeting public health guidelines for MVPA (ie, 30min/d) between persons with MS and controls.Design: Secondary analysis of a combined data set of persons with MS and healthy controls from 13 previous investigations of physical activity over a 8-year period (2005-2013).Setting: University.Participants: Participants with MS (n = 800) were recruited primarily within Illinois through multiple sources, including print and e-mail flyers and an online advertisement on the National Multiple Sclerosis Society website. Healthy controls (n = 137) were recruited via public e-mail postings delivered across the university community.Interventions: Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures: Levels of MVPA and meeting public health guidelines for MVPA between persons with MS and controls.Results: After controlling for covariates (ie, age, sex, education, race, income), there was a moderate (d = .68) and statistically significant (F = 47.2, P
