Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Participants will wear a Fitbit that has been programmed to deliver a notification (a buzz) when activity has ceased for more than 10 minutes. They will receive suggestions on their Illumivu mEMA smartphone app on how to replace sitting time with PA such as standing up 5 times or taking 20 steps, or even performing a short (20 seconds) preferred dance routine. Fitbit data will be captured in real-time via the iCardia platform. Participants will receive reminders from their smartphones to enter real-time feedback on activity options selected and how successful they were in adopting the option. These data will allow tracking of underlying preferences for behaviors and to tailor the program accordingly.
