Activity Intensity, Volume, and Norms: Utility and Interpretation of Accelerometer Metrics
Conclusion
The ACC and the IG accelerometer metrics facilitate the investigation of whether volume and intensity of physical activity have independent, additive, or interactive effects on health markers. In future studies, the adoption of data-driven metrics would facilitate the generation of age- and sex-specific norms that would be beneficial to researchers.
