Observing the observer : experiences with contextual inquiry to design a horse rider assessment interface (2017)
Presentation / Conference
interface. Presented at BCS Human Computer Interaction Conference (HCI 2017) : Digital Make Believe, Sunderland University, UK

Current approaches to the postural assessment of horse riders is highly subjective, with a lack of consistency between practitioners. A technology based solution would remove the human perspective and enable a more consistent, accurate and objecti...

24-hour population-level activity patterns : application of relative versus standard reference frame (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Gbadamosi, A., Granat, M., Pickford, C., & Clarke-Cornwell, A. (2017, June). 24-hour population-level activity patterns : application of relative versus standard reference frame. Presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Background: Population-level analysis of physical activity levels reveals a 24-hour pattern determined by the alignment of each individual's activity with a common reference point, i.e., the 24-hour standard timeframe. In this way, each person's day... Read More about 24-hour population-level activity patterns : application of relative versus standard reference frame.

The association of sedentary behaviour and mental wellbeing in the workplace (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Gbadamosi, A., Granat, M., Pickford, C., & Clarke-Cornwell, A. (2017, June). The association of sedentary behaviour and mental wellbeing in the workplace. Poster presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Background: Sedentary behaviour (SB) is highly prevalent in workplaces and this behaviour can be detrimental to health; however, little is known about SB and its association with mental wellbeing (MW). Therefore, the main aim of this pilot study was... Read More about The association of sedentary behaviour and mental wellbeing in the workplace.

Classification of occupations by accelerometer-derived variables for physical behaviour : Health Survey for England 2008 (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Clarke-Cornwell, A., Granat, M., & Cook, P. (2017, June). Classification of occupations by accelerometer-derived variables for physical behaviour : Health Survey for England 2008. Poster presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Objective: Leisure time sedentary behaviour (SB) is known to be associated with a number of healthrelated outcomes (HRO); however, for those who are economically active, occupational activity (OA) contributes towards their daily physical activity (PA...

An investigation into the effect of lower limb exercise programme on objectively measured physical activity in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Molyneux, J., Herrington, L., Clarke-Cornwell, A., & Jones, R. (2017, June). An investigation into the effect of lower limb exercise programme on objectively measured physical activity in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. Poster presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading causes of pain and disability. Exercise has been recommended as a core treatment for OA. Previous studies have shown that adults with symptomatic knee OA take between 4000-6700 steps per day, which is less th...

The distribution of activPAL postural and stepping classifications within ActiGraph activity classifications (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Clarke-Cornwell, A., Cook, P., & Granat, M. (2017, June). The distribution of activPAL postural and stepping classifications within ActiGraph activity classifications. Presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Objective: Guidelines of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) are dependent on how we define and quantify physical behaviour. It is therefore important to understand the validity of objective measures of PA and SB. This study aimed to...
