Calibration of self-report tools for physical activity research: The Physical Activity Questionnaire
(PAQ)

This study examined the potential of calibrating self-report output against objectively measured physical activity (PA) in youth by using a commonly used self-report tool called the Physical Activity Questionnaire (PAQ).The results suggested that the calibrated PAQ may be a valid alternative tool to activity monitoring
instruments for estimating %MVPA in groups of youth

Web-Based Assessments of Physical Activity in Youth: Considerations for Design and Scale Calibration
This paper describes the design and methods involved in calibrating a Web-based self-report instrument to estimate physical activity behavior. The limitations of self-report measures are well known, but calibration methods enable the reported information to be equated to estimates obtained from objective data. This paper summarizes design considerations for effective development and calibration of physical activity self-report measures.
