Table 2.

Bland and Altman (B-A) statistics (differences objective – self-report measure) including bias, lower and upper limits of agreement (LOA), percentage of data loss, and correlation statistics results of the comparison between self-report measures of sedentary time s against objective data (activPAL) organised according to the TASST taxonomy
