TI  - The Compatibility of Children with Obesity to Self-Report Aspects of Physical 
      Activity Domains.

AB  - Questions about the different aspects of physical activity (PA) are commonly 
      asked in the clinical setting, yet their compatibility for use with children, 
      particularly children with obesity (OB) is uncertain. Our aim was to investigate 
      different PA-related questions when compared to an objective maximal 
      cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) or validated questionnaires. For this study, 
      33 normal-weight (NW) (5 to less than 85% BMI percentile) and 35 OB (>/=95% BMI 
      percentile) children responded to three self-report PA questions evaluating PA 
      domains (exercise capacity, limitations, and the maintenance of an active 
      lifestyle); they also completed a maximal CPET and two validated questionnaires: 
      the New York Heart Association (NYHA) questionnaire and the international 
      physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ). The results regarding the NW children 
      were highly compatible with their self-reports about exercise capacity (85%), 
      whereas the compatibility was low (40%) in the OB group (p < 0.001). Both OB and 
      NW groups had moderate compatibility between the self-report and objective 
      findings regarding their exercise limitations and lifestyle with no significant 
      differences between the groups. These findings suggest that it is inadvisable to 
      rely on a single-item question by which to assess PA in OB children, and no 
      definite conclusions regarding PA status should be drawn. NW children are more 
      compatible with self-reporting their overall exercise capacity, with more limited 
      compatibilities observed when self-reporting their limitations or lifestyle.
