Detaljeret beskrivelse
Study Overview: This study examines how individuals' mindsets about the adequacy of their level of physical activity and its corresponding health consequences (activity adequacy mindsets) affect health outcomes. Participants attend an "onboarding" lab session in which they complete physiological, cognitive, and psychological measures and receive an Apple Watch to wear for the following 5 weeks. The Watch is equipped with a step count tracking app. No step count feedback is provided in week 1 as a baseline; starting in week 2, participants are randomized to 4 conditions in which either 1) accurate, 2) inflated, or 3) deflated step count is displayed on the watch in order to manipulate participants' perceived physical activity, independently of their actual physical activity. In condition 4, participants receive a meta-mindset intervention in addition to accurate step count feedback. Throughout the 5 weeks, participants complete short daily surveys and longer weekly surveys administered online. Finally, participants come in for an "offboarding" lab session in which the same measures are collected as in the onboarding session.
Participants: Participants will be 160 healthy adults recruited from the community, 40 per condition.
Main Hypotheses: This is a largely exploratory study, examining various mechanisms through which activity adequacy mindsets may affect health and wellbeing. Tests include (but are not limited to) the following key hypotheses:
H1) Inflated step count feedback (compared to accurate feedback) leads to a more positive activity adequacy mindset, and deflated feedback (compared to accurate feedback) leads to a more negative activity adequacy mindset (see Primary Outcome Measures).
H2) Activity adequacy mindset influences health and wellbeing (see Primary Outcome Measures) over and above actual physical activity.
H3) Activity adequacy mindset influences health and wellbeing through various mechanisms (see Secondary Outcome Measures):
H3a) Affective mechanism: A more positive (vs. negative) activity adequacy mindset leads to more positive everyday affect (incl. higher satisfaction, lower anxiety, lower stress). Positive affect in turn improves health and wellbeing.
H3b) Motivational/ behavioral mechanism: A more positive (vs. negative) activity adequacy mindset leads to higher motivation to exercise and improve one's health, as well as higher exercise self-efficacy. Higher motivation and self-efficacy in turn lead to higher levels of actual physical activity, which in turn improve health and wellbeing.
H3c) Placebo mechanism: A more positive (vs. negative) activity adequacy mindset directly improves health and wellbeing through placebo/ nocebo effects.
H4) A meta-mindset intervention teaching people about activity adequacy mindsets leads them to adopt more positive mindsets, which in turn predicts improved health and wellbeing through the mechanisms described under H3. That is, compared to accurate step count feedback only, accurate feedback plus meta-mindset intervention leads to improved health and wellbeing.

Intervention / Behandling |
---|---|
Aktiv komparator: Accurate step count feedback
All arms are given identical instructions in the onboarding session, including information about the study purpose and Apple Watch. They complete the same set of physiological, cognitive, and psychological measures and receive an Apple Watch to wear for the following 5 weeks. Throughout the 5 weeks, participants complete short daily surveys and longer weekly surveys. Finally, participants come in for an "offboarding" lab session in which the same measures are collected as in the onboarding session. In this arm, participants' Apple Watches will simply display their accurate step count. |
After one week of baseline step count measurement, participants will receive the intervention.
Starting day 8, participants' Apple Watches will start displaying their step count.
In this arm, they will simply see their accurate step count.

Eksperimentel: Deflated step count feedback
All arms are given identical instructions in the onboarding session, including information about the study purpose and Apple Watch. They complete the same set of physiological, cognitive, and psychological measures and receive an Apple Watch to wear for the following 5 weeks. Throughout the 5 weeks, participants complete short daily surveys and longer weekly surveys. Finally, participants come in for an "offboarding" lab session in which the same measures are collected as in the onboarding session. In this arm, participants' Apple Watches will display a deflated step count. |
After one week of baseline step count measurement, participants will receive the intervention.
Starting day 8, participants' Apple Watches will start displaying their step count.
In this arm, they will see their step count deflated by 40% (i.e., their step count multiplied by 0.6).

Eksperimentel: Inflated step count feedback
All arms are given identical instructions in the onboarding session, including information about the study purpose and Apple Watch. They complete the same set of physiological, cognitive, and psychological measures and receive an Apple Watch to wear for the following 5 weeks. Throughout the 5 weeks, participants complete short daily surveys and longer weekly surveys. Finally, participants come in for an "offboarding" lab session in which the same measures are collected as in the onboarding session. In this arm, participants' Apple Watches will display an inflated step count. |
After one week of baseline step count measurement, participants will receive the intervention.
Starting day 8, participants' Apple Watches will start displaying their step count.
In this arm, they will see their step count inflated by 40% (i.e., their step count multiplied by 1.4).

Eksperimentel: Accurate feedback + mindset intervention
All arms are given identical instructions in the onboarding session, including information about the study purpose and Apple Watch. They complete the same set of physiological, cognitive, and psychological measures and receive an Apple Watch to wear for the following 5 weeks. Throughout the 5 weeks, participants complete short daily surveys and longer weekly surveys. Finally, participants come in for an "offboarding" lab session in which the same measures are collected as in the onboarding session. In this arm, participants' Apple Watches will display their accurate step count. Additionally, participants in this arm will receive a meta-mindset intervention. |
After one week of baseline step count measurement, participants will receive the intervention. Starting day 8, participants' Apple Watches will start displaying their step count. In this arm, they will simply see their accurate step count. Additionally, participants in this arm will receive a meta-mindset intervention in the first weekly survey on day 7, which consists of a series of videos and reflection exercises to teach participants about the power of mindsets and encourage them to choose adaptive mindsets that will benefit their health. There are also short booster reflection exercises in all subsequent daily and weekly surveys, reinforcing the message about adaptive mindsets. |

Physical Health measures are BMI (calculated from self-reported height and weight measured in lab, BMI = kg/m^2); Body fat percentage (measured on lab scale); Resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure (measured in lab); Resting heart rate (HR) (measured in lab); Average daily heart rate (measured by Apple Watch heart rate sensor); VO2max, approximated through the Canadian Home Fitness Test (based on post-exercise HR measured in lab); Perceived general health (measured via 1-item self-report); Perceived fitness (measured via 1-item self-report); Physical function and pain (measured via PROMIS-29 Profile v2.0 questionnaire).
All measures will be factor analyzed and combined into a summary score (average of standardized scores weighted by variables' factor loading), provided factor analysis shows that they load onto one factor (i.e., rotated factor loadings of >= |0.4|).
Measures will also be analyzed separately for exploratory purposes.
