About 6-Minute Walk Test
The 6 M W T is a measure of the individual’s physiological or cardiovascular function and reflects the functional exercise level for daily physical activities (ATS, 2002; Torrey, 2002) and mobility-related function among older adults (Harada et al., 1999). The test has been reported to have high reliability with coefficients of ICC = 0.88-0.95 (Rikli & Jones, 1998; Steffen et al., 2002) and moderate correlation (r=0.71) with older adults’ overall physical performance assessed by treadmill performance (Rikli & Jones, 1998). The 6 M W T was also found to have a high correlation (r=0.97) with older adults’ sum- maximal exercise VO2 (kervio et al., 2002) and moderate correlation (r=-0.73 and 0.61) with mobility assessed using the gait speed test (Harada et al., 1999) and with functional ability assessed using the physical function scale (Bean et al., 2002) respectively.
