The Impact of Real-time Feedback on Physical Activity Patterns in Flemish Employees: an Intervention Study
The aim of the study is to assess an increase of daily physical activity from electronic self-monitoring, to compare these values to the 10.000 step program, and to compare with real-time feedback with and without guidance from a Personal Coach.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
The purpose of this intervention study is to determine the effectiveness of continuous self-monitoring and real-time feedback from the SenseWear Armband (BodyMedia) alone and in combination with Personal Coaching to enhance physical activity and influence consciousness about its own physical activity patterns over a 12-month period in sedentary Flemish employees.
The investigators hypothesize that the use of the feedback will increase awareness and subsequent physical activity levels of inactive office workers.
Another hypothesizes is that the weekly meeting with a Personal Coach will add a controlling element and therefore employees of the 'coaching group' will have a higher physical activity level at the end of the intervention period compared to the other groups.

Placebo komparator: Control group
This group receives no kind of feedback during the intervention period.
The participants wear the SenseWear Armband for 4 weeks and results of the intervention are discussed after the 4 week intervention period.

Eksperimentel: Step Group
This group receives feedback about the daily amount of steps by means of a pedometer.

Participants receive a pedometer to determine their daily amount of steps.
Every day they write down their amount of steps in a step diary.

Eksperimentel: Display Group
Participants receive real time feedback on their energy expenditure, minutes of physical activity and step count by means of the SenseWear Display
|
Participants use the self-monitoring device (display) to aid behavior change via real-time lifestyle feedback targeting physical activity. The display has a versatile design that allows it to be clipped to a shirt, bag or belt loop. The Display can help participants stay in sync with their daily goals.

Tidsramme |

|
Physical Activity Level
Tidsramme: One year
|
To account for differences in body size and composition, the 24-hour energy requirement (kcal/day) is expressed as a multiple of the basal metabolic rate per 24 hours by using the PAL value (PAL = total energy expenditure/basal metabolic rate).
A desirable PAL includes the regular practice of physical activity at work or in spare time with an intensity and duration that will reduce the risk of becoming overweight and developing a variety of non-communicable chronic diseases usually associated as co-morbidities with obesity.
This corresponds to PAL values of 1.75 and higher.

Minutes of physical activity.
Activities can be classified as moderate-intensity, vigorous-intensity or very vigorous-intensity activities based upon the amount of energy used by the body while doing the activity.

Stages of Motivational Readiness for Physical Activity
Tidsramme: One Year
|
According to The Stages of Motivational Readiness for Change Model (SOC), individuals move through a series of stages as they adopt and maintain a new habit(Prochaska & DiClemente, 1983).
Specifically, the stages include Precontemplation, Contemplation, Preparation, Action, and Maintenance.The relevant variables were assessed in a self-administered questionnaire.
