a

Age Specific—model estimates developed and tested within age group classification.

b

Generalizability—model developed on the young age group and tested on the other age group classifications.

c

Walking activities 1.5 mph and 2.0 mph. 2.5 mph and 3.0 mph, 3.5 mph and 4.0 mph were collapsed into single categories of slow walk, moderate walk and fast walk, respectively for purposes of activity classification only.
