1 Evaluating a Variable as a Proxy for another Measure: Assessing the Step Test Exercise Prescription as a Proxy for the Maximal, High- intensity Peak Oxygen Consumption in Older Adults Jonathan D.

4 Motivating Example  KU ADC thematic focus on modifiable lifestyle risk factors and AD prevention  Maximal, high-intensity peak oxygen consumption (VO 2 peak) an important measure of fitness  Interested in whether a lower-impact, sub-maximal Step Test Exercise Prescription, or STEP, could serve as valid proxy  Less equipment required: staircase and stopwatch  Likely to facilitate better subject recruitment for AD research  Validity of STEP as a proxy for VO 2 peak in older adult population unclear © 2013 Jonathan D.
