Introduction to a Collection of Physical Activity Questionnaires

Physical activity has emerged as an important risk factor for many chronic diseases, such as coronary heart disease and diabetes. As part of an effort to improve public health by increasing physical activity levels of the nation, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Colleg
