Abstract

The article focuses on the results of a home environment preschool-age physical activity questionnaire (Pre-PAQ), in a study. Around 103 families completed by Pre-PAQ, and validated against accelerometry for 67 children. Five progressive levels into which the Pre-PAQ categorizes activity include stationary no movement, stationary with limb or trunk movement, slow, medium, or fast-paced activity.
