Behaviour-based movement cut-off points in 3-year old children comparing wrist- with hip-worn actigraphs MW8 and GT3X
This calibration provides useful cut-offs for physical activity levels of preschool children. Contextual information of behaviour is advantageous over intensity classifications only, because interventions will focus on behaviour-allocated time to reduce a sedentary lifestyle. Our comparative calibration is one step forward to behaviour-based movement guidelines for 3-year-old children.
