Abbreviations: AIC: Akaike information criterion (=2k – 2ln(L), where k is the number of parameters and L is the maximized likelihood estimate of the model) Lower AICs indicate better model performance; LR: Likelihood ratio; ICC: Intraclass correlation coefficient; SF-36 PCS: Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey version 2 Physical Component Scale; IPAQ: International Physical Activity Questionnaire.

Based on the following cut-points: light activity: 60 – 1158 counts per minute; moderate-to-vigorous: >1159 counts per minute.
