Validity and reliability of the Baecke questionnaire for the evaluation of habitual physical activity among people living with HIV/AIDS

摘要: This study evaluates the validity and reliability of Baecke questionnaire on habitual physical activity when applied to a population HIV/AIDS subjects. Validity was determined by comparing measurements for 30 subjects peak oxygen uptake, workload, energy expenditure with scores occupational (OPA), exercise in leisure (PEL), locomotion activities (LLA), total score (TS). Reliability testing retesting 29 at intervals 15-30 days. evaluated Pearson correlation analyses were done using intraclass correlation, paired Student t-test, Bland-Altman methods. Peak VO2 workload had significant PEL (r = 0.41; r 0.43; respectively). Energy OPA 0.64). The coefficients 0.70 or more OPA, TS. There no difference PEL, LLA TS between two evaluations. methods showed that there good agreement all scores. Results show is valid evaluation among people living HIV/AIDS.
