Although its improvement can positively affect many behavioral, psychological, social, and physical variables, debate remains over an appropriate method of collecting empirical physical literacy data. This systematic review sought to identify and critically evaluate all primary studies (published and unpublished, regardless of design or language) that assessed physical literacy in adults or have proposed measurement criteria. Relevant studies were identified by searching four databases (Pubmed, SportDiscus, APA PsycINFO, Web of Science), scanning reference lists of included articles, and manual cross-referencing of bibliographies cited in prior reviews. The final search was concluded on July 15, 2022. Thirty-one studies, published from 2016 to 2022, were analyzed. We found seven instruments measuring physical literacy in adults, of which six were questionnaires. The Perceived Physical Literacy Instrument was the first developed for adults and the most adopted. The included studies approached physical literacy definition in two ways: by pre-defining domains and assessing them discretely (through pre-validated or self-constructed instruments) and by defining domains as sub-scales after factorial analyses. We found a fair use of objective and subjective measures to assess different domains. The wide use of instruments developed for other purposes in combined assessments suggests the need for further instrument development and the potential oversimplification of the holistic concept, which may not result in a better understanding of physical literacy. Quality and usability characteristics of measurements were generally insufficiently reported. This lack of data makes it impossible to compare and make robust conclusions. We could not identify if any of the existing physical literacy assessments for adults is appropriate for large-scale\/epidemiological studies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0288541","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,14]],"date-time":"2023-07-14T17:28:17Z","timestamp":1689355697000},"page":"e0288541","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Physical literacy assessment in adults: A systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0154-4520","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Aia","family":"Boldovskaia","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Nuno Manuel Gon\u00e7alves","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Marlene N.","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Eliana V.","family":"Carra\u00e7a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"pone.0288541.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"113","DOI":"10.1007\/s40279-016-0560-7","article-title":"Definitions, Foundations and Associations of Physical Literacy: A Systematic Review","volume":"47","author":"LC Edwards","year":"2017","journal-title":"Sports Medicine"},{"key":"pone.0288541.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.4324\/9780203881903","volume-title":"Physical literacy: Throughout the lifecourse.
