PA stands for Physical Activity. For determining sleep, we used a slightly modified algorithm that we had previously proposed [18] (see text for details). Using the sleep detection algorithm and the PA thresholds to estimate the five categories leads to the computed accuracies reported herein. For all acceleration summary measures, the results are presented in gravitational units (g).
