简要总结
Mindful walking is a meditation practice that combines physical activity and mindfulness practice. The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions provided for increasing physical activity among adults with low physical activity levels. A randomized controlled trial design will be utilized, with an intervention and waitlist control group (N = 160). Outcomes measured include physical activity, sleep quality, and functional fitness. Participants will receive a total of eight sessions of 60-minute mindful walking training within four weeks. The intervention group will receive the training in Weeks 1-4 and the control group will receive the training during Weeks 5-8. Each training group will consist of up to 20 individuals. Data will be collected at baseline, four weeks, and eight weeks to determine the efficacy of the intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in flexibility
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
The back scratch flexibility test (how close the hands can be brought together behind the back) and the chair sit-and-reach test will be used to measure upper and lower limb flexibility, respectively (Prakhinkit et al. 2014).
Change in agility
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
The timed up-and-go test will be used as a measure of agility (Prakhinkit et al. 2014)
Change in dynamic balance
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
The Star Excursion Balance Test will measure dynamic balance (Gribble, Hertel, and Plisky 2012)
Change in cardiorespiratory endurance
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
6 minute walk test, measure includes how many meters the individual walks in 6 minutes around a 50-yard course (Prakhinkit et al. 2014)
Change in sleep quality
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention/baseline, 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index: 19 item self-report measure assessing sleep quality over the past month, total score ranging from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating worse sleep quality
Change in physical activity
时间窗: Scale administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
Rapid Assessment of Physical Activity Scale: self-report scale of physical activity, with total score ranging from 1-10; higher scores indicate increased activity
Change in muscle strength
时间窗: Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group)
Upper and lower muscle strength will be measured with the 30-second arm curl test (number of biceps curls completed while holding a hand weight of 2.27 kg for women and 3.63 kg for men) and the 30-second chair-stand test (Prakhinkit et al. 2014).
次要结局
- Change in adherence to medications(Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group))
- Change in perceived stress(Assessment administered at pre-intervention/baseline, 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group))
- Change in executive functioning(Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group))
- Change in mindfulness skills(Assessment administered at pre-intervention (baseline), 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group))
- Mindfulness practice behavior(Assessment administered at 4 weeks (post-intervention for experimental group), 8 weeks (post-intervention for control group and follow-up for experimental group))
