简要总结
This explanatory sequential mixed methods study investigated if an intervention can increase the physical activity identity and physical activity (PA) of inactive individuals. The intervention condition focused on increasing participant's physical activity self-definition (PASD) through educational sessions and group discussions on the five direct and indirect determinants of PASD (perceived enjoyment, perceived wanting, perceived commitment, perceived trying, perceived ability). The control condition was given general health behaviour education sessions. Researchers conducted interviews with some of the participants after the intervention was completed.

盲法说明
The participants were told that they were in one of two informational sessions; they were not told if they were in the intervention or the control group. Researchers sending the surveys to participants' emails were also blinded to the condition. Intervention facilitators who were presenting the material were necessarily aware of the condition.

研究组 & 干预措施
PASD Intervention
6 week 30-45 minute psychoeducation sessions that delivered content on the variables within the Physical Activity Self-Definition Model. The first session was an introductory session and each one that followed focused on one of the direct or indirect determinants of the model: perceived enjoyment, perceived wanting, perceived commitment, perceived trying, perceived ability (all relating to physical activity). Group activities such as worksheets and discussion were carried out during the session.
干预措施: Physical Activity Self-Definition (Other)
Attention Control
6 week 30-45 minute educational sessions that delivered content on general health behaviour. After the introductory session, each week, one of five general health behaviours were covered: balanced diet, sleep, reducing sedentary behaviour, mental/spiritual health and self-compassion/cultivating positive health behaviours. Group activities such as worksheets and discussion were carried out during the session.
干预措施: Control (Other)
