| Activity | Biopac (GS) | Apple Watch (AW) | Polar Vantage (PV) | ANOVA (p) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lying | 62,92 ± 10,72 | 62,62 ± 10,59** | 61,87 ± 10,68*** | < .001 |
| Sitting | 71,18 ± 12,39 | 70,94 ± 12,40 | 69,95 ± 12,36 | .278 |
| Standing | 77,10 ± 12,97 | 76,92 ± 13,10 | 72,95 ± 14,10* | .019 |
| Walking | 86,48 ± 13,37 | 86,76 ± 13,24 | 90,91 ± 19,42 | .358 |
*p < .05;
Significance is shown according to Bonferroni contrast tests applied to compare the differences between HR mean values from an ANOVA analysis between wearables.
**p < .01; ***p < .001. Significant difference compared to GS (Bonferroni contrast test for repeated measures). Statistical Power: π = 0.99.
