Summary

This pilot study represents an initial foray into delivering home-based individually-tailored physical activity interventions for cancer risk reduction among African American women in the Deep South.

Conditions

  • Physical Activity

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

HIPP

The physical activity intervention is based on the Social Cognitive Theory and Transtheoretical Model and includes motivation-matched physical activity manuals and individually-tailored computer expert system feedback reports. Tailored reports are based on participants' monthly update survey data and cover: 1) current stage of change; 2) self-efficacy; 3) decisional balance; 4) social support; 5) outcome expectations; 6) enjoyment; 7) progress feedback; 8) normative feedback; 9) self regulation. The computer expert system draws from a bank of 330 messages addressing different levels of psychosocial and environmental factors affecting physical activity.

BEHAVIORAL

Wellness contact control

Cancer prevention information on topics other than physical activity (e.g., "Add Fruits and Veggies to Your Diet") from the American Cancer Society website (www.cancer.org) are mailed to control participants at the same time points that the HIPP Intervention participants receive their physical activity intervention materials.
