International Physical Activity Questionnaire

There are 7 questions in the short form of the questionnaire. This measure assesses the types of intensity of physical activity. The items in the short form were structured to provide separate scores on walking, moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity activity. Computation of the total score for the short form requires summation of the duration (in minutes) and frequency (days) of walking, moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity activities. Standard MET values for activities were established. Total Work MET-minutes/week =sum of Walking+Moderate+Vigorous MET-minutes/week scores at work. The score obtained is classified as non-physical activity (MET-600 energy level), insufficient physical activity level (MET = energy level between 600-3000) and adequate physical activity level (MET ≥ 3000 energy level).
