Effects of Information Length and Implementation Intentions on Adherence to Weight Management Strategies: Experimental Study

Effects of Information Length and Implementation Intentions on Adherence to Weight Management Strategies: Experimental Study

However, evidence shows that adherence is often suboptimal and can be as low as 10%, undermining intervention effectiveness [6]. There is also some evidence that adherence is lower in individuals with lower socioeconomic status [7], which may contribute to health inequalities. Therefore, it is crucial to explore methods by which adherence can be increased to maximize the potential benefits of interventions. One important factor to consider is the way the information is presented.

Exergame-Based Behavior Change Interventions for Promoting Physical Activity: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Studies

Exergame-Based Behavior Change Interventions for Promoting Physical Activity: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Studies

Third, effective exergame-based intervention components are not fully explored and discussed in the previous review. Another review relevant to this topic was also published recently, but it also did not fully address the components of exergame interventions. It primarily focused on the intervention period, population, outcome measurement, and control group type, which are important but are commonly discussed in most behavior change articles [19].

A Peer Support Specialist–Delivered Sexual and Intimate Partner Violence Prevention Program for Women in Substance Use Treatment: Protocol for a Single-Arm Trial

A Peer Support Specialist–Delivered Sexual and Intimate Partner Violence Prevention Program for Women in Substance Use Treatment: Protocol for a Single-Arm Trial

To minimize social desirability bias, the study procedures emphasized with participants include confidentiality of survey responses and disclosures within the intervention sessions. This is further reinforced with the use of confidential online surveys and reliance on aggregated data for interpretation of the findings.

A Work-Based, Fully Remote, and Peer-Supported Exercise Snack Behavior Change Intervention (MOV’D): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial

A Work-Based, Fully Remote, and Peer-Supported Exercise Snack Behavior Change Intervention (MOV’D): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial

For the MOV’D intervention only, we will assess the average snacktivities reported for the 4-week intervention period. Both groups took part in a 4-week fully remote intervention with assessments at baseline, postintervention, and 4-week follow-up. An overview of the study design and timeline can be seen in Figure 1. Study overview and timeline. MOV’D: Move Often Every Day.

Acceptability of an Intervention to Prevent Older Adult Mistreatment Among Family Caregivers to Persons With Dementia: Multimethod Pilot Study

Acceptability of an Intervention to Prevent Older Adult Mistreatment Among Family Caregivers to Persons With Dementia: Multimethod Pilot Study

This study examines the acceptability of the KINDER intervention. “Acceptability” is a concept believed to drive adherence, engagement, and future adoption of behavioral intervention and is, therefore, a critical criterion for intervention translation [16]. Few interventions have been tested to prevent mistreatment by caregivers toward persons with dementia, regardless of mistreatment type [17,18].

Exploring the Current Situation and Developing Strategies for Behavior Change to Improve Antibiotic Use in West Africa: Protocol for a Multidisciplinary Interventional Research Project

Exploring the Current Situation and Developing Strategies for Behavior Change to Improve Antibiotic Use in West Africa: Protocol for a Multidisciplinary Interventional Research Project

Discussions will be recorded and transcribed, followed by qualitative data analysis to summarize the ideas generated for an intervention on AMR. Based on these results, the design teams will meet again in each study site to develop the prototype of an intervention.

Leveraging Canadian Health Care Worker Volunteers to Address COVID-19 Vaccine Misinformation on Facebook: Qualitative Program Evaluation Study

Leveraging Canadian Health Care Worker Volunteers to Address COVID-19 Vaccine Misinformation on Facebook: Qualitative Program Evaluation Study

Despite vaccines being widely recognized as a key public health intervention, individuals’ vaccination decisions have been influenced by factors such as concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy, complacency or a low perceived risk of illness, and the inconvenience of accessing vaccination services [5].

Promoting Intergenerational Health in Rural Kentuckians With Diabetes (PIHRK’D): Protocol for a Longitudinal Cohort Study

Promoting Intergenerational Health in Rural Kentuckians With Diabetes (PIHRK’D): Protocol for a Longitudinal Cohort Study

This paper describes the protocol of Promoting Intergenerational Health in Rural Kentuckians With Diabetes (PIHRK’D), an intervention to determine whether leveraging family units as sources of social support promotes nutritional and physical activity changes among individuals with both overweight/obesity and T2 DM and also to assess whether members of the household who engage in the intervention will show changes in anthropometric measures for an at-risk weight/body composition or maintain a healthy body composition

Current Practice and Expert Perspectives on Cultural Adaptations of Digital Health Interventions: Qualitative Study

Current Practice and Expert Perspectives on Cultural Adaptations of Digital Health Interventions: Qualitative Study

For example, creating a preliminary adaptation design of a mental health intervention will differ drastically when the intervention is delivered physically compared to it being delivered through a mobile phone app that might require expensive and time-consuming software changes.
