Zusammenfassung

Vor dem Hintergrund zunehmenden Bewegungsmangels ist die adäquate Erfassung körperlicher Aktivität in der Bevölkerung für die Entwicklung geeigneter Interventionsmaßnahmen notwendig. Hierfür können generell entweder subjektive oder objektive Methoden verwendet werden. Während die Goldstandardmethoden objektiver Aktivitätserfassung für die Verwendung im Feld ungeeignet erscheinen, können einfache objektive Methoden wie die Akzelerometrie, Pedometrie und Herzfrequenzerfassung aufgrund des geringen Aufwands für Probanden gut verwendet werden. Die Auswahl der jeweils passenden Methode orientiert sich an der Fragestellung, der Aktivitätscharakteristik der Zielgruppe, den gewünschten Ausgabevariablen, den Kosten und der Praktikabilität im entsprechenden Setting. Durch die technische Entwicklung hat sich zunehmend auch die ambulante, technikgestützte Erfassung körperlicher Aktivität mithilfe von Multisensoren, Sensoren zur Kontexterfassung und die Interaktion mit Selbstangaben per Smartphone verbessert.

Summary

With decreasing levels of physical activity, adequate measures to assess physical activity at the population level in order to develop targeted intervention programmes are mandatory. In general, subjective and objective gold standard measures can be used to assess physical activity. While objective gold standard measures are inappropriate to assess physical activity in the field, accelerometry, pedometry or heart rate monitoring are appropriate easy methods to use due to their low participant burden. The choice of adequate measures depends on the research question, the characteristic of the physical activity behaviour of a target population, the outcome variables of interest, the budget and the practicability in the setting. Technological progress has led to a continuous improvement of ambulatory, technology-based approaches to assess physical activity using multi-sensors, context-sensitive sensors and interactive assessment in combination with self-report via smart phones.
