Is Wrist Accelerometry Suitable for Threshold Scoring? A Comparison of Hip-Worn and Wrist-Worn ActiGraph Data in Low-Active Older Adults with Obesity.

As older adults spend a considerable portion of their day in non-exercise activities of daily living, researchers should be cautious in the use of simply acceleration thresholds for scoring wrist-worn accelerometer data. Methods for better classifying wrist-worn activity monitor data in older adults are needed.
