Perceived and objective entrance-related environmental barriers and daily out-of-home mobility in community-dwelling older people
Declining health and functional capacity increase the risk of physical inactivity in old age, which in turn leads to further health decline (Rantanen et al., 1999). Physical activity tends to increase when an individual leaves the home (Davis et al., 2011; Portegijs, Tsai, Rantanen,& Rantakokko, 2015) In addition, leaving the home daily is associated with better health and function in community-dwelling older people (Shimada et al., 2010; Fujita, Fujiwara, Chaves, Motohashi,& Shinkai, 2006), and enables older people to participate in meaningful activities (Satariano et al., 2012; Baker, Bodner, Allman&, 2003).

Validation of the self-report EXERNET questionnaire for measuring physical activity and sedentary behavior in elderly
Physical activity (PA) is important to maintain a good health at all ages. It is particularly critical for people over 65 years old, where inadequate PA not only increases the risk of chronic diseases, but also progressively compromises the ability to live independently (Liffiton, Horton, Baker,& Weir, 2012). A healthy lifestyle where PA is a key factor, contributes to the lower incidence of mortality rates, lower incidence of developing diseases such as hypertension, diabetes or obesity, reduces the risk of falls, improves mood and physical and mental well-being, and decreases functional impairment (Kahn et al., 2002; Tay...
