概括
基于网络的体育活动 (PA) 计划有效地增加了成年人的活动. 交互式程序在静态网站上没有显著的优势,这表明信息质量是数字健康干预的关键.
科学领域:
- 数字健康干预措施 数字健康干预措施
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 行为科学 行为科学
背景情况:
- 身体不活动会带来严重的健康风险,导致疾病和死亡率.
- 尽管有建议,但由于社会经济和环境因素,许多成年人仍然保持不活跃.
- 基于网络的体育活动 (PA) 计划提供可扩展的解决方案,但在有效性方面有所不同.
研究的目的:
- 评估为期12周的多式联通网络TKFitnessCoach计划.
- 为了促进PA,将交互式个性化干预与非交互式对照进行比较.
- 评估对PA水平,目标实现,生活质量,体重和饮食行为的影响.
主要方法:
- 一个随机对照试验 (RCT) 涉及德语成年人群.
- 干预组接受了交互式TK-FitnessCoach;对照组获得了一个静态PA信息网站.
- 在基线,干预后和6个月和12个月的随访期间收集的数据.
主要成果:
- 这两组在12个月内显示出PA显著增加 (约. 73-74分钟/周) 的时间.
- 互动和非互动组之间没有发现PA改善或二次结果的显著差异.

Group Design
The most basic experimental design involves two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The two groups are designed to be the same except for one difference— experimental manipulation. The experimental group gets the experimental manipulation—that is, the treatment or variable being tested—and the control group does not. Since experimental manipulation is the only difference between the experimental and control groups, we can be sure that any differences between the two are due to...
Regression Toward the Mean
Regression toward the mean (“RTM”) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when researchers try to extrapolate results...
What is an Experiment?
An experiment is a planned activity carried out under controlled conditions. The purpose of an experiment is to investigate the relationship between two variables. When one variable causes change in another, we call the first variable the explanatory or independent variable. The affected variable is called the response or dependent variable. In a randomized experiment, the researcher manipulates values of the explanatory variable and measures the resulting changes in the response variable. The...
Randomized Experiments
The randomization process involves assigning study participants randomly to experimental or control groups based on their probability of being equally assigned. Randomization is meant to eliminate selection bias and balance known and unknown confounding factors so that the control group is similar to the treatment group as much as possible. A computer program and a random number generator can be used to assign participants to groups in a way that minimizes bias.
