New algorithms in awake wear-time classification hailed as a major advance in #activPAL research by Carlson and others in latest Journal for the Measurement of Physical Behaviour DOI: doi.org/10.1123/jmpb.2020-04…

Two automated activPAL algorithms for awake wear-time detection were compared to diaries in youth through older adults. Algorithms and diaries showed similar wear-time estimates on days w/o short non-wear periods (<2.5 hr). @JohnBellettiere, @DoriRosenberg doi.org/10.1123/jmpb.2020-00…
