Way to Be Active IV (Framing vs Incentives)
A Randomized Trial of Behavioral Economic Interventions to Improve Physical Activities: Framing vs Incentives
Employers are increasingly looking for opportunities to motivate sedentary employees to become more physically active. Workplace walking programs have had mixed success and typically show most improvement among participants that are already fairly active at a baseline. The goal of this study is to determine whether a financial incentive program can motivate sedentary employees to increase the number of steps they walk per day to meet a minimum threshold.
The primary outcome measure is the proportion of days a minimum activity of 7000 steps or more is achieved. Outcomes will be assessed each week for 3 months using incentives followed by 3 months of follow-up without incentives. Secondary outcomes will include the average steps walked per day.

有源比较器：Feedback 50th Percentile
At the end of each week, participants will be told the average daily step count for their team for the previous week.
They will also be told the average for the 50th percentile in their arm.
|
每天都会向参与者提供关于他们前一天是否走了 7000 步或更多步的反馈。

实验性的：Feedback 75th Percentile
At the end of each week, participants will be told the average daily step count for their team for the previous week.
They will also be told the average for the 75th percentile in their arm.

实验性的：Feedback 50th Percentile + Lottery
At the end of each week, participants will be told the average daily step count for their team for the previous week.
They will also be told the average for the 50th percentile in their arm.
If their team's average daily step count is ≥ 7000 steps, they'll be eligible to collect winnings from a weekly lottery.
Teams whose average daily step count is less than 7000 will receive messages about how much they would have won had the team met its goal.
