Summary
The purpose of this research study is to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness of behavioral activation to increase everyday movement and reduce the amount of time spent daily in positions of prolonged standing and sitting. This intervention is call Movement-Oriented Behavioral Activation (MOBA). Participants will undergo a 60-minute screening that includes health and lifestyle questionnaires, mobility testing and a six-minute walk. Participants will complete the same procedures after completing MOBA. Each participant will be randomly assigned to an intervention group or a wait-list group. Both groups will participate in the same 12-week MOBA group protocol, but the intervention group participates first. During MOBA sessions, participants will set movement goals to reduce total time spent sitting and standing, and learn exercises and strategies to get more physical activity throughout the day and evening. At the end of the 12-week group, all participants, including those on the wait-list will be asked to complete the same questionnaires, mobility testing, and 6-minute walk as the beginning of the study. Total study duration for the intervention group is about 4 months. Total study duration for wait-list group will be about 8 months, which about half of that time spent in the waiting period.
Separate from the intervention there will be a focus group with prospective participants (N = 4-8) to collect information about physical activity perspectives and experiences to better align delivery of the intervention to the target cohort (participation in the focus group does not obligate participation in the intervention). A focus group will be conducted post intervention also. Participants enrolled in the intervention can participate in the focus groups.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
Pilot cohort will be composed of food service workers drawn employee by sponsor's organization. The age range was chosen to target the critical window for establishing the long-term geroprotective benefits of increasing movement-oriented behaviors. The workplace cohort was chosen because their work demands are characterized by a high level of stationary activity.
Exclusion Criteria
- individuals with moderate or greater depression severity (PHQ-9 > 14); and 2) individuals with significant mobility limitation, defined as inability to complete 6 Minute-Walk Test.
