Positive value indicates the device underestimates steps in comparison to Actigraph GT3x
p value obtained from Wilcoxon signed rank test comparing activity time from each device to Actigraph GT3X.
Unable to calculate percentage error because some people had 0 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity as measured by the Actigraph GT3X.
