f rom data in the l i terature. In the H eal th
Insurance Plan Study , a sel f -adm inistered
questionnai re containing 10 i tem s about oc-
cupational and lei sure-time physical acti v i ty
w as used (6). T he scores w ere calculated w i th-
out the use of intensi ti es for the di f ferent
types of acti vi ti es.
T o the authors know ledge, the rel i abi l i ty
of the questionnaires m entioned above has
not been tested. Cri ter i on-oriented val i dati on
(concurrent val i dati on) i s not possible be-
cause a val i d ref erence m ethod that m easures
habi tual physical acti v i ty independentl y , does
not ex i st. T heref ore, some investigators hav e
studied the relati onship betw een the assessed
habi tual physical acti v i ty and another param-
eter that i s assum ed to be related to habi tual
phy sical acti v i ty , eg, physical w ork capaci ty
(5). I t i s of i nterest to study the construct
val i di ty of the questionnai re (7), especial l y
w hen a completel y val i d cr i teri on i s not av ai l -
able. T his impl ies that an adequate investi -
gati on encompasses the study of subdiv i sion
of phy sical acti v i ty into more speci f i c group-
ings of acti v i ti es. U nti l now tw o dimensions
of habi tual physical acti v i ty have been disti n-
guished, namely , occupational and lei sure-
time physical acti v i ty . H ow ever, i t m ay be
possible to disti nguish more or other dimen-
sions, w hich are important to the descr ipti on
of the pattern of habi tual physical acti v i ty .
T he purpose of the present study in young
adul ts i s f i rst, to inv estigate the construct
val i di ty of a sel f -adm inistered questionnai re
about habi tual physical acti v i ty and to estab-
l i sh meaningful i ndi ces of physical acti v i ty ,
second, to estim ate the test-retest rel i abi l i ty
of the questionnai re, and thi rd, to inv estigate
the relati onship betw een the indices of phy s-
i cal acti v i ty and age, level of education, sub-
jecti ve ex perience of w ork load, and lean
body mass.
M ethods
opu l a t i o n
I n the f i rst part of 1980 a study w as carried out in the
M unici pal i ty of Ede i n T he N etherlands in w hi ch al l the
i nhabi tants in three age groups (19 to 21, 24 to 26, and
29 to 31 yr as of January 1, 1980) w ere inv i ted to
par ti ci pate (8). T hei r addresses w ere obtained f rom the
Civ i l R egistrati on O f f i ce in Ede. A l l the parti cipants
f rom three secti ons of the m unicipal i ty , w i th a distribu-
tion of sex , age, and l evel of education com parabl e w i th
the total study populat ion, w ere inv i ted agai n i n N ovem-
ber 1980 to par ti ci pate in the present study . Com plete
i nform ation w as obtai ned f rom 309 subjects, represent-
in g
70
of al l i nv i ted subjects. W om en, pregnant f or 3
m onths or longer (n 3), w ere ex cluded f rom further
analyses.

A l l subjects w ere inv i ted by m ai l to com plete the
questionnai re at hom e and then to v isi t a m obi le research
uni t that w as stat ioned i n each section of the m unici pal i ty
f or 7 days. T he questionnai re w as check ed for complete-
ness and the anthropometri c m easurem ents w ere m ade
at the mobi l e research uni t. B ody w ei ght and body height
w i thout shoes and jack et w ere m easured to the nearest
0. 1 kg and 0. 1 cm , respecti vel y . B iceps, tri ceps, suprai l i ac,
and subscapular sk infold thick nesses w ere measured,
according to D urnin and Raham an (9), tw ice on the lef t
si de of the body to the nearest 0.2 m m usi ng a H ol tain
sk inf old cal iper. B ody fat w as calculated as a percentage
of total body w eight (B F ) f rom the average sum of the
four sk infol d thi cknesses, usi ng l i near regression equa-
ti ons for 20- to 29-y r-ol d m al es and fem al es (10). L ean
body mass (L B M ) w as calculated f rom total body w eight
(W ) and B F [L B M

A pprox im atel y 3 months af ter this exami nat ion, the
par ti ci pants w ere v i si ted at hom e and requested again to
complete the quest ionnai re on habi tual physi cal act i v i ty
so that the test- retest rel iabi l i ty could be studi ed. T he
v i si t w as part ofa food consum ption study i n w hich 90
(n 277) of al l subjects parti cipated.
Qu e s t i o n n a i r e
U sing a questionnai re, inf ormation w as col lected on
the l evel of education, subj ecti ve ex per ience of w ork
load, and habi tual physical act i v i ty . T he present subdi -
v ision of education into three level s has been descri bed
elsew here (8) . Subjecti ve experience of w ork load w as
measured by means of an ex isting D utch quest ionnai re
(SEW L ) dev i sed by losten (I 1). T his questi onnai re con-
sists of 53 i tems ref err ing to dai l y acti v i t i es. I t contai ns
a dichotom ous response format; a subject experiences a
certai n acti v i ty ei ther as physical l y strenuous or not. T his
response scale is di f f erent f rom the B org s percei ved
ex erti on rating scal e ( 12) ; how ever, i t m ay be assum ed
that both scales are related to the identi cal concept.
T he original questionnai re on habi tual phy sical act i v -
i ty consisted of 29 i tem s concerning the fol low ing f i ve
com ponents: occupation, movem ent, sport, leisure tim e
act i v i t i es excl udi ng sport, and sl eeping habi ts. A l l re-
sponses w ere precoded on f iv e-point scales w i th the
ex ception of the questions on the nam e of m ain occu-
pat ion and the types of sport played. T hree lev els of
occupati onal phy sical acti v i ty w ere def ined accordi ng to
T he N ether lands N utr i ti on Counci l (13): the l ow lev el
f or occupations such as, cleri cal w ork , dri v ing, shopkeep-

al l other occupations w i th a universi ty educat ion; the
mi ddl e level f or occupations such as, f actory w ork ,
plumbing,
carpentry,
and farm i ng: and the high level f or
occupati ons such as, dock w ork , construct ion w ork , and
sport.
Spor ts w ere subdi v ided into three l evels of physical
act i v i ty accordi ng to D urnin and Passm ore (14); the low
lev el f or sports such as, bi l l i ards, sai l i ng, bow l i ng, and

cal acti v i ty w hich w ere studied. T he f i rst
factor consisted of aspects of occupational
phy sical acti v i ty (i tems 1 to 8). A s al l occu-
pations have been precoded according to
three lev els of physical acti v i ty , i tem 1 giv es
an objecti ve measure of phy sical acti v i ty at
w ork . H ow ever, thi s measure has the disad-
vantage that a parti cular occupation i s alw ays
classi f i ed in the same w ay and therefore in-
ter i ndi v idual v ar iabi l i ty i n phy sical acti v i ty
w i thin a certain occupation i s not taken into
account. T he m easurement of phy sical acti v -
i ty at w ork can be improved w i th the addi ti on
of i tems 2 to 8 concerning sel f -assessm ent of
phy sical acti v i ty . I t has been show n that sel f -
assessment of phy sical acti v i ty paral l el s the
scores of actual phy sical acti v i ty reasonably
w el l (16).
T he second f actor can be interpreted as
sport during lei sure time. I tems 10 and 11
concerning habi tual physical acti v i ty during
lei sure time in general w ere related to sport.
T his f i nding suggests that people connect
physical acti v i ty dur ing lei sure time m ainl y
w i th play ing sport. B ul l en et al (17), w ho
measured physical acti v i ty by observation,
show ed that there i s inter indi v idual variabi l -
i ty i n the energy expendi ture w i thin certain
types of sport. I t can be suggested that thi s
inter indi v idual v ar iabi l i ty i s partl y taken into
account by i tem s 10 and 1 1
I n addi ti on to
sport i n lei sure tim e, another dimension of
physical acti v i ty in lei sure time could be dis-
ti nguished. T his relates to w atching telev i -
sion, w alk ing, and cycl i ng during lei sure tim e
in general , and the time spent w alk ing and/
or cycl i ng per day to and f rom w ork , school
and shopping, in parti cular.
T he test-retest rel i abi l i ty of the indices of
phy sical acti v i ty , measured w ith an interval
of 3 m onths, being betw een 0.80 and 0.90 f or
the w ork index and sport i ndex , and 0.74 f or
the lei sure-time index , make the question-
nai re usef ul .
T he f inding, that the lev el of education w as
inv ersely related to the w ork index , and pos-
i ti vel y related to the lei sure-time index , i s in
accordance w i th the resul ts of the O slo Study
(18). T he sport i ndex also tended to be posi -
ti vel y related to the lev el of education, but
thi s w as only signi f i cant in females. T he in-
verse relati onship observ ed betw een SEW L
and the sport i ndex and lei sure-time index ,
B A EC K E ET A L
w hi le SEW L w as not related to the w ork
index , may be explained by the fact that there
i s more f reedom of choice in the selecti on of
acti v i ti es during lei sure time than at w ork .
People w ho have a high SEW L tend to choose
more sedentary acti v i ti es dur ing lei sure tim e
than people w i th a low SEW L .
L B M w as chosen as a parameter of body
com posi ti on because there i s supposed to be
a relati onship betw een L B M and physical
acti v i ty . H ow ever, i n analyzing the relati on-
ship betw een L B M and the indices of phy sical
acti v i ty , adjustments f or body height and the
percentage of body fat should be made. T he
ef fects of the percentage of body fat may be
especial l y conf using since the relati onship of
body f at to L B M is assumed to be posi ti v e
19, 20), w hereas the relati onship of body fat
to phy sical acti v i ty may be negati v e. T he
adjusted posi ti ve relati onship betw een L B M
and the w ork index and the sport i ndex in
males i s in accordance w i th the posi ti v e re-
lati onship betw een L B M and physical acti v -
i ty observed by others (2 1-23). T he lei sure-
time index w as not related to L B M , w hich
may indicate that the intensi ti es of the acti v -
i ti es dur ing lei sure-tim e are too low to af fect
L B M . T he independence of physical acti v i ty
and L B M observed in females may also be
ex plained in the sam e w ay.
I n summary , i t w as concluded that habi tual
phy sical acti v i ty encompassed three disti nct
dim ensions. T hese w ere physical acti v i ty at
w ork , sport dur ing lei sure-tim e, and other
physical acti v i ty during lei sure-time. T he in-
di ces of physical acti v i ty deri v ed f rom these
dimensions w ere rel i able. T he di f f erences in
the relati onships betw een the three indices of
physical acti v i ty on one side and level of
education, SEW L , and L B M on the other
side, em phasize the need to disti nguish the
three dimensions. T heref ore, the present
study suggests that habi tual phy sical acti v i ty
can be determ ined w hen these three f actors
are measured and included in the assessm ent.
