Study Summary

The goal of this system identification experiment is to estimate and validate dynamical computational models that can be used in a future a multi-timescale model-predictive controller. System identification is an experimental approach used in control systems engineering, which uses random and pseudo-random signal designs to experimentally manipulate independent variables, with the goal of producing dynamical models that can meaningfully predict individual responses to varying provision of support. A system identification is single subject/N-of-1 experimental design, whereby each person is their own control. This 9-month system identification experiment will experimentally vary daily suggested step goals and provision of notifications meant to inspire bouts of walking during different plausible just-in-time states. Results of this system identification experiment will then enable the development a future multi-timescale model-predictive controller-driven just-in-time adaptive intervention (JITAI) intended to increase steps/day. The system identification experiment will be conducted among N=50 inactive, adults aged 21 or over who have no preexisting conditions that preclude them from engaging in an exercise program, as determined using the physical activity readiness questionnaire.

Primary Outcome

This will be measured continuously for the duration of the study via a Fitbit Versa, a wrist-worn, consumer-level activity tracker.
