Self-Reported Home Exercise Adherence: Validity and Reliability Study Using Concealed Accelerometers (ptinquest.libsyn.com)

• Self-reports overestimate adherence compared to concealed accelerometers.
• Findings undermine validity of prior studies relying on self-report.
• Clinicians should use objective measures or combined methods for adherence tracking.

"A study by Nicolson et al. (2018) examined the accuracy of self-reported home exercise adherence using concealed accelerometers. Results showed that self-reports often overestimate adherence, questioning the validity of previous studies relying on self-report. Clinicians should consider objective monitoring."
