暂无简介。

•1.They have had a hip fracture and are now living at home independently within 6 months of discharge
•2.They are aged over 65 years
•3.They speak conversational English
•4.They are currently insufficiently active – as defined by obtaining less than 30 minutes of activity most days of the week

•1.They have a cognitive impairment of any kind – this is because the Motivational Interviewing intervention is a talking intervention that requires people to be able to think clearly and generate their own ideas of how they can change their behaviour
•2.They score in the severe range of depression or anxiety as measured by the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS: Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995)
•3.They do not speak conversational English - this is because the Motivational Interviewing intervention is a talking intervention and the person delivering the intervention only speaks English and there are not sufficient funds to employ another person who is able to speak in other languages
•4.They are less than 65 years of age – this is because the population of interest for the current study is people 65+, because this is the group who is most likely to experience problems with reduced mobility following a hip fracture
•5.They are highly dependent on medical care, in either high level or low level care – this is because the population of interest is people living independently in the community who are capable of becoming more active
•6.They are already sufficiently active, as defined as obtaining at least 30 minutes of activity most days of the week
