“…For walking, two low-quality studies, one that relied on self-reported walking and the other that relied on objectively measured walking, both reported no association between walking and gender [35,42]. Older age was not found to be associated with self-reported MVPA in any of the four studies which examined MVPA [21,22,24,29]. One study reported that older age was associated with participants who self-reported less walking, however, the influence of age on walking was dependent on the sub-group examined.…”

“…A range of different vision parameters and their association with MVPA were examined (Table 3), including self-reported VI classification (5/29), visual acuity in the better eye (3/29), visual field (5/29), contrast sensitivity (5/29) and colour vision (1/29). For studies which examined the association between self-reported VI classification and MVPA, there was evidence that being classified as blind was associated with lower levels of PA when compared to being classified as VI [21,31]. However, there was no evidence across studies of a dose-response interaction between the severity of sight loss, based on the international blind sports classification of VI (B1 vs. B2 vs. B3 vs. B4), and MVPA [24,27,42].…”

“…All of the studies which examined the relationship between MVPA and VI classification relied on self-reported MVPA measurement tools. In addition, it is possible that three of the studies may have selected the same participants for multiple studies, due to the similarities in the methods used in the recruitment of participants [21,24,25].

“…The most frequently reported correlation was between PA and gender. Overall, three studies reported that male participants selfreported engaging in significantly more MVPA than female participants [23,27,42], and five studies reported that there was no association between self-reported MVPA and gender [21,22,24,29,32]. One low-quality study examined the relationship between objectively measured MVPA and gender and reported no association between gender and MVPA [35].…”

Background: Physical activity (PA) is essential for almost all facets of health; however, research suggests that PA levels among populations with sight loss are critically low. The aim of this review was to identify the correlates of PA among people with sight loss in high income countries, to inform future interventions and policies. Methods: MEDLINE, Web of Science, PsycINFO, SPORTDiscus, The British Journal of Visual Impairment, The Journal of Visual Impairment and grey literature were searched for studies which reported correlates of PA among adults with sight loss. The protocol is available from PROSPERO (CRD42020215596). Results: A total of 29 articles were eligible for review. Evidence from multiple studies reported that the vision impairment category, worse visual acuity, bilateral visual field loss, worse contrast sensitivity, those of the female gender, low self-efficacy, and environmental barriers were associated with lower levels of PA among populations with sight loss. Conclusions: Overall, correlates of PA among people with sight loss in high income countries are complex and vary across different population groups. Health professionals, eye care, and sight loss services should work together to identify people at risk of low PA, and provide a range of services and interventions to influence the modifiable factors that are associated with low PA.

“…In recent years, researchers have begun to use SCT to understand physical (in)activity for those with VI (e.g., Cervantes & Porretta, 2013;Haegele, Brian, & Lieberman, 2017;Haegele, Kirk, & Zhu, 2018). Haegele et al (2017) examined SCT-based predictors of PA and sedentary behavior for adults with VI. Results showed that social support significantly predicted PA participation, while self-regulation predicted sedentary time.…”

We developed a preliminary Physical Activity Barriers Questionnaire for Youth with Visual Impairments (PABQ-VI) using social cognitive theory as the guiding theoretical framework. Twenty-one youth with VI in Ireland participated in our study. Validity (content test, internal structure, and relations to other variables) and reliability evidence of the PABQ-VI scores were examined. Content test validity evidence was assessed using a panel of experts. Item-total correlations were used to assess internal structure validity evidence, and resulted in the removal of nine items. Bivariate correlations were conducted to establish relations to other variables validity evidence. Results revealed that scores obtained on the PABQ-VI were negatively correlated with physical activity levels, but not significantly correlated with self-efficacy for overcoming barriers. Omega and spilt-half reliability estimates were used to establish reliability evidence. Results of these calcuations revealed high reliability estimates. The development of the PABQ-VI will assist researchers to quickly identify PA barriers that limit youth with VI, and to help inform the design of future PA interventions.
