简要总结
This study explored whether exercise video distribution using metaverse space is effective in increasing physical activity among young people, along with mental health and locomotive function. This is a randomized parallel-group study. Participants will be assigned to 3 groups: a metaverse group, a YouTube group, and a control group. The metaverse group will receive eight 10-minute exercise videos each week with approximately 4 to 8 METs (metabolic equivalents of task) in the metaverse space to encourage exercise, and the YouTube group will receive access to the same exercise videos as the metaverse group. The control group was given no specific instructions.
The intervention period was 8 weeks, and physical activity and other items were measured before and after the intervention. These pre- and post-intervention measurements will be used to determine whether the delivery of exercise videos via Metaverse is effective in increasing physical activity in young adults.

结局指标
主要结局
Physical activity
时间窗: The pre-measurement answered the most recent week, and the post-measurement responded to the next week after the 8 weeks intervention was finished.
The short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form was used to measure the effect of an intervention.
