Habit Formation in Older Adults: Feasibility Study

3. februar 2021 opdateret af: Young Joo Kim, East Carolina University

Forming New Habits: A Feasibility Study on an Intervention to Decrease Sedentary Behaviors in Medically Stable Older Adults

Sedentary behavior, which is characterized by too much sitting, is an epidemic in the United States. It is estimated that 4 out of every 10 Americans never engage in physical activity, and approximately 60% of an adult's non-sleeping hours are spent in sedentary behaviors. This equates to approximately 9-10 hours per day. As sedentary behavior increases, so do diagnoses of chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease. Older adults are particularly at risk for sedentary behavior and the related chronic illnesses.

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of implementing the EMA intervention with medically stable older adults who are living in the community.

The secondary aims of this study are to investigate the effectiveness of the Everyday Meaningful Activities (EMA) Intervention in forming active lifestyle behavior habits and in decreasing an individual's perceived sedentary time.

This prospective study will examine the ability of medically stable older adults to decrease sedentary behavior by creating new, active lifestyle behavior habits using the Everyday Meaningful Activities intervention. The EMA Intervention is based in Habit Formation Theory. It is an individualized, client-centered intervention that aims to increase adherence to active lifestyle behaviors in older adults' lives. Participants will engage in the EMA Intervention that is designed to create new active lifestyle behavior habits by attaching these new active lifestyle behaviors to currently existing daily routines.

During six intervention sessions over six weeks, participants will select two new active lifestyle behaviors to make habitual and will create action plans to create the habits. The first behavior will be implemented at the first intervention session, and the second behavior will be implemented at the fourth session. The participants will be assessed three times over their 8 to 10-week study participation. Participants should (1) be 65 years of age and older, (2) have intact cognition, (3) have no self-reported physical activity limitations, (4) have a sedentary lifestyle, and (5) have no acute illnesses or unstable medical conditions.

The results of this study may provide evidence for the occupational therapy intervention to decrease sedentary behavior in older adults in the community. The results may also broaden the scope of occupational therapy practice through demonstrating the potential for occupational therapy services in preventive health care.

Changes in the Self-Report Habit Index
Tidsramme: 1) intervention session 1 at Week 1; 2) intervention session 4 at Week 4, and 3) posttest at Week 7
The Self-Report Habit Index (SRHI) measures features of habits including repetition, automaticity, and expressing identity. This 12-item assessment assesses the strength of habits by differentiating habit strength from behavior frequency. The participants will choose two active lifestyle behaviors to incorporate into their daily lives. The SRHI will generate pretest and posttest data for each behavior. The items in the SRHI began with the stem "Behavior X is something…" and is then followed by 12 statements rated on a scale from 1 (very strongly agree) to 7 (very strongly disagree). A total score ranges from 1 to 84 with lower scores indicating stronger habits.
1) intervention session 1 at Week 1; 2) intervention session 4 at Week 4, and 3) posttest at Week 7
Changes in Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire
Tidsramme: 1) intervention session 1 at Week 1, and 2) posttest at Week 7
The Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ) is a self-report questionnaire about time spent in sedentary behaviors both on weekdays and weekends. There are 9 identical items on the weekday form and the weekend form. Participants will complete both forms at both time points. The SBQ is used to assess the participants' perceived sedentary time. A total score ranges from 0 to 54 for each (weekday and weekend), with higher scores indicating more sedentary behaviors.
1) intervention session 1 at Week 1, and 2) posttest at Week 7
