N2 - OBJECTIVE: The objective of this scoping review is to identify and map subjective instruments that have been developed for children and adolescents with cerebral palsy from birth to 18 years to measure physical activity and sedentary behavior.INTRODUCTION: Children and adolescents with cerebral palsy often do not meet the recommended levels of physical activity, even though regular physical activity is an important determinant of good health. Considering the importance of physical activity, there is a need for systematic collection of data on daily activity and sedentary behavior of children and adolescents with cerebral palsy. Subjective instruments with clinical utility for use in quality registers are needed to evaluate interventions and investigate the relationship between activity and health outcomes.INCLUSION CRITERIA: This review will consider studies that include children and adolescents from birth to 18 years with cerebral palsy across levels I to V of the Gross Motor Function Classification System. Specifically, this scoping review will report on subjective instruments used to measure physical activity and sedentary behavior and that distinguish between physical activity performance and physical activity capability.METHODS: This scoping review will be conducted in accordance with the JBI methodology for scoping reviews and will search the following databases: MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, JBI Evidence Synthesis, Embase, and PEDro, as well as specific journals relating to physical activity assessment.
