The purpose of this study was to compare differences between directly measured Vo_2max using a cycle ergometer protocol and Vo_2max predicted by a self-report questionnaire. One hundred forty subjects (aged 61.3±8.2) were divided into four groups: control group (group C, n=33), walking group (group W, n=37), trekking group (group T, n=44) and jogging group (group J, n=26). Vo_2max was measured following an incremental protocol using a Monark cycle ergometer (measured Vo_2max) and by a self-report questionnaire (predicted Vo_2max). Pearson correlation coefficients between measured Vo_2max and predicted Vo_2max were significant in all groups. However, standard errors of estimation (SEE) of group J were higher than those reported in previous studies. The difference in measured Vo_2max and predicted Vo_2max correlated significantly with the mean between the measured and predicted Vo_2max in group J. There were significant differences between the measured Vo_2max and the predicted Vo_2max in groups T and J. These results suggest that when the exercise intensity is high, such as in jogging, and consequently when Vo_2max is high, the self-report questionnaire method might underestimate Vo_2max., 金沢大学人間社会研究域人間科学系}, pages = {7--13}, title = {質問紙法で推定した最大酸素摂取量の運動種目の違いによる妥当性の検討 : 中高齢者を対象として}, volume = {9}, year = {2004} }
