Hi there,

 

I am looking for articles on the validity of the physical activity measures (mainly active minutes) and sedentariness. So far, my search was not very successful.

 

Thanks in advance!

@noemi1008  Welcome! It's good that the community is growing! Thank you for your inquiry. If you wish to know more about how active minutes are counted and the reason behind their calculation you can refer to this help article. There you will find links to respected sources like the CDC website. This article about Reminders to move should help with your inquiry about sedentariness. 

 

Let me know how it goes!
