Item Validity and reliability of Nike + Fuelband for estimating physical activity energy expenditure(BMC, 2015) Tucker, Wesley J.; Bhammar, Dharini M.; Sawyer, Brandon J.; Buman, Matthew P.; Gaesser, Glenn A.Background: The Nike + Fuelband is a commercially available, wrist-worn accelerometer used to track physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) during exercise. However, validation studies assessing the accuracy of this device for estimating PAEE are lacking. Therefore, this study examined the validity and reliability of the Nike + Fuelband for estimating PAEE during physical activity in young adults. Secondarily, we compared PAEE estimation of the Nike + Fuelband with the previously validated SenseWear Armband (SWA).
