The use of the Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Physical Activity Questionnaire in oncology research: a systematic review
TL;DR: There is support for using the original form of the GSLTPAQ and interpreting the LSI for ranking cancer survivors from the lowest to highest levels of leisure-time physical activity and for assessing changes in LSI.
The impact of physical activity and an additional behavioural risk factor on cardiovascular disease, cancer and all-cause mortality: a systematic review.
TL;DR: Those participants who reported being physically active combined with achieving other health behaviour goals compared to those who were categorised as physically inactive were at least half as likely to experience an incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) event, die from CVD, or die from any cause.
Validation of the Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Physical Activity Questionnaire classification coding system using accelerometer assessment among breast cancer survivors
TL;DR: The Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Physical Activity Questionnaire can be used to classify cancer survivors into active and insufficiently active categories in reference to cancer survivors’ physical activity guidelines, however, it has greater capacity to correctly identify insufficientlyactive respondents.

Physical and psychological health among breast cancer survivors: interactions with sedentary behavior and physical activity
TL;DR: Reducing sedentary behavior (SED) may be one promising strategy to reduce treatment‐related side effects in breast cancer given the unique health benefits distinct from the beneficial effects of moderate‐to‐vigorous intensity physical activity (VPA).
