Fiabilidad y validez del cuestionario de actividad física PAQ-A en adolescentes españoles (Reliability and Validity of the PAQ-A Questionnaire to Assess Physical Activity in Spanish Adolescents)

= 0.74 in the 232 adolescents sample. The PAQ-A was moderately correlated with total PA (rho = 0.39) and MVPA (rho= 0.34) assessed by the accelerometer. The PAQ-A obtained significantly moderate correlations in boys but not in girls against the accelerometer.
Conclusions: The PAQ-A questionnaire shows an adequate reliability and a reasonable validity for assessing PA in Spanish adolescents.
