Findings from Buckinghamshire New University Provide New Insights into Disability and Health (Development of a Single-item Physical Activity Intention Measure for Adults With Intellectual Disabilities: Evidence of Validity and Reliability).

Researchers from Buckinghamshire New University have developed a Single-Item Physical Activity Intention Measure (SPAIM) to assess the physical activity intentions of adults with intellectual disabilities. The study found that modifying physical activity intentions could be crucial in reducing sedentary behavior and improving the health outcomes of this population. The research provided evidence of validity and reliability for the SPAIM and suggested that further research and application of the measure in different contexts would deepen our understanding of physical activity intentions and explore its predictive characteristics.
