Sample Data Poster

You may view sample step data from normative subjects engaged in a variety of occupations here: Sample Occupations. You will need to have a program like Adobe Acrobat on your computer to view the PDF file.

The step data reflect an actual work session for each of the occupations listed. At the bottom of the page is a graph showing the Sustained Activity Scores for each work session. You can access these calculations for your own data in the Activity/Time screen.

Sample Data File

There is a sample data file called DemoData.swb in a folder called Sample Data inside your Client Files folder. (On windows machines set to not display file extensions, the file name will appear as DemoData.)

Open the demo file either by double clicking on the file or using the Open command in the File menu of your StepWatch program and navigating to the Sample Data folder. This file contains days that are entirely included, entirely excluded and partially included for analysis. You can use this file to practice interpreting the data and to experiment with many StepWatch program functions.
