- Accuracy of Fitbit Devices: Systematic Review and Narrative Syntheses of Quantitative Data (2018, methodology): “We focused our interpretation of measurement accuracy based on predefined acceptable limits for measurement accuracy in controlled settings as a percentage difference of ±3% and acceptable limits for relative accuracy in free-living settings as a percentage difference of ±10% [19-22].”
- Using pedometers to increase physical activity and improve health: a systematic review. (2007, methodology): “Sixteen studies used the Yamax pedometer (Yamax Corp, Tokyo, Japan)—a model that has been well validated for accuracy and reliability and is frequently used in physical activity research.(41-44) The physical activity interventions evaluated in the included studies varied considerably: mean (SD) dura”

- Assessment of physical activity in youth. (2008, background): “Similar issues occur with the estimation of distance from pedometers (27), because distance is the product of stride length and frequency (101).”
- How many steps/day are enough? for adults (2011, methodology): “The instruments determined to be most suitable for the assessment of free-living physical activity have been scrutinized and include the Kenz Lifecorder, the Yamax, and the NewLifestyles NL pedometers [76].”
