Study Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of using personalized trial methods in a virtual research study with Northwell employees aged 45-75 years old to increase low-intensity walking by 2,000 steps per day/5 days per week using four behavior change techniques (BCTs), provided in random order, and shown to have been effective in changing physical activity. The study will include a two-week baseline period during which levels of physical activity and adherence to the trial protocol will be evaluated. Individuals meeting adherence criteria will be randomized to the eight-week BCT intervention.

Primary Outcome

Participant steps will be assessed continuously using a Fitbit mobile device. Daily steps for participants will be aggregated by baseline and intervention phases to generate average daily steps in each phase. Changes in daily steps between baseline and intervention phases will be compared using Generalized Linear Mixed Model analyses. Changes in daily steps between intervention and baseline will be represented using a regression parameter.
