在过去十年中，体力活动监测器在以人口为基础的研究中的使用大幅增加。在这份报告中，我们回顾了在不同类型的基于人群的研究(即监测、干预、关联研究)中使用体力活动监测器的主要目的，并讨论了每种研究类型的监测器所产生的各种行为结果的优缺点。我们还更新和扩大了以前关于在大规模研究中使用这些仪器的建议，特别是在近年来技术进步的背景下选择监测系统方面。还讨论了关于使用体力活动监测器的最佳测量计划的科学现状。提供了一份核对表和流程图，以便研究人员在报告其研究中使用监视器的关键要素时有更多的指导。
The use of physical activity monitors in population-based research has increased dramatically in the past decade. In this report we review the major purpose for using physical activity monitors in different types of population-based study (i.e., surveillance, intervention, association studies) and discuss the strengths and weaknesses for the various behavioral outcomes derived from monitors for each study type. We also update and extend previous recommendations for use of these instruments in large-scale studies, particularly with respect to selecting monitor systems in the context of technological advances that have occurred in recent years. The current state of the science with respect to optimal measurement schedules for use of physical activity monitors is also discussed. A Checklist and Flow Chart are provided so that investigators have more guidance when reporting key elements of monitor use in their studies.
