Figure 1. Mean Sitting Time, by United Hospital Fund, 34 Neighborhoods in New York City, Physical Activity and Transit Survey, 2010–2011. Darker areas indicate longer sitting times for neighborhood residents.
The difference between self-report and accelerometer is plotted on the y-axis and the average of the 2 measures on the x-axis. The small dashed line represents the mean difference between the 2 measures; the large dashed lines are the 95% limits of agreement (N = 667).
