Abstract
In this study, we found that accelerometers, alone or in combination with other co-interventions, increased physical activity in older adults however pedometers were not found to increase physical activity. The high risk of bias found in most studies limits these findings. High quality studies that isolate the effects of accelerometers on physical activity changes are needed.
