MOVED ADULT FOLLOW-UP SURVEY
Introduction
Thank you for taking the time to meet with me today. This survey will cover several topics that will help us understand how neighborhood may impact adult health outcomes, like obesity and (type II) diabetes. The survey will cover topics like diet, neighborhood, and exercise. None of the questions asked will be used for diagnostic purposes. Participation is completely voluntary and you may choose to skip any questions that you do not wish to answer. The interview should take about 60 minutes to complete. You can choose not to answer any question. Are you ready to begin the survey now?
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
The first set of questions asks about the different types of activities you may do and where you may do them.[if needed: if you feel that these questions are too personal, you can choose not to answer them.]
International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form
Vigorous activity
Think about all the vigorous activities that you did in the last 7 days. Vigorous physical activities refer to activities that take hard physical effort and make you breathe much harder than normal. Think only about those physical activities that you did for at least 10 minutes at a time.
During the last 7 days, on how many days did you do vigorous physical activities like heavy lifting, digging, aerobics, or fast bicycling?
