研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this research study is to learn if enrolling in a program with a partner that involves monitoring each other's physical activity and providing support to one another can help both participants be more physically active.
详细描述
Study Groups:
If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you and your partner will be randomly assigned (as in a flip of a coin) to be in 1 of 2 groups after you complete the first in-person visit. You will have an equal chance of being in any group.
If you are assigned to Group 1, the following tests and procedures will be performed:
- You will wear an activity tracker that you will be given at the baseline visit. The activity tracker is a small device worn on your wrist that records how many steps you have taken.
- You will be instructed in the use of a smartphone application at the baseline visit which you will use to track your physical activity, connect with your partner to share information about your physical activity, and provide support to your partner to be more physically active.
- You will have 6 counseling calls over the telephone throughout the study with a trained counselor and your partner.
- You will be emailed electronic newsletters to read that may help you be more physically active.
If you are assigned to Group 2, you will be sent the newsletters that may help you be more physically active and upon completing the16 week visit, you will be given an activity tracker and instruction in the use of a smartphone application.
