Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to translate and investigate the validity and reliability of the modified Baecke Physical Activity Questionnaire (mBQ) in the Greek adult population.
Detailed Description
The purpose of this study was to translate and investigate the validity and reliability of the modified Baecke Physical Activity Questionnaire (mBQ) in the Greek adult population. The cross-cultural adaptation of the mBQ was performed according to official guidelines.The reliability was determined by filling out the mBQ, two times, one week apart. For validation, the scores between the mBQ and the IPAQ were compared and the correlation between mBQ and VO2max and between mBQ and interview (METS) were assessed.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Reliability
Time Frame: one week apart
The reliability was determined by filling out the modified Baecke Questionnaire, two times, one week apart (test-Retest). Tool: Modified Baecke Questionnaire (test-retest)
Validity
Time Frame: 1) IPAQ ( Time Frame: 30 min) 2) Astrand-Rhyming Cycle Ergometer Test (Time Frame: 20 min) 3) Interview (Time Frame: 45 min) 4)Modified Baecke Questionnaire (Time Frame: 30 min)
For validation, the scores between the modified Baecke Questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) were compared and the correlation between Modified Baecke Questionnaire and VO2max (via Astrand-Rhyming Cycle Ergometer Test) and between modified Baecke Questionnaire and interview (via METS) were assessed. Tools: 1. International Physical Activity 2. Astrand-Rhyming Cycle Ergometer Test Questionnaires (VO2max) 3. Interview (METS) 2)
