PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND SEDENTARY BEHAVIOR IN RESIDENTS OF ASSISTED LIVING: A PILOT LONGITUDINAL STUDY

Abstract

Low levels of physical activity (PA) and high sedentary behavior (SB) place older assisted living (AL) residents at risk for functional decline and premature transfer to a higher level of care. This study aimed to examine the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a longitudinal study using two objective measures of PA and SB.
