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.
