Intervention(s)
|
Intervention duration is 12 weeks and is comprised of one face-to-face consultation session (1 hour in week 1) and five telephone calls (10-20 minutes each in weeks 2, 3, 5, 8, 12). The intervention is delivered by a research assistant working in geriatric medicine who has training in delivering behaviour change interventions. The intervention is based on content contained in a workbook given to participants in the face-to-face session. This workbook contains six modules:
1. Sitting and your health
2. Taking action
3. Using your sitting influences to your advantage
4. Don't take set-backs sitting down!
5. 8 Lifestyle Habits to boos your brain health further!
6. Reflection and forward planning
Modules are designed to be completed during each contact point, e.g. the face-to-face session and telephone calls. Participants will be asked to complete homework (10-20 minutes) during the face-to-face session and prior to each telephone call.
The two key guidelines of the intervention are:
1. Stand for 3 @ 30. Participants are encouraged to stand up and move for 3 minutes after every 30 minutes of uninterrupted sitting.
2. Sit less throughout the day. Participants are encouraged to replace activities done while sitting down for those that can be done while standing.
Participants will set action plans to try and achieve the intervention guidelines. They will also complete trackers to monitor their progress.
During the face-to-face session conducted in the home of the participants, they will receive information about sitting time and health, the potential benefits of reducing prolonged periods of sitting and feedback on their objectively measured sitting time. They will also receive a device (Jawbone UP2) to wear on the wrist for the duration of the intervention. This device will prompt them to move after 30 minutes of uninterrupted sitting.
During the telephone calls, participants will be asked about their program, and their progress in reducing their sitting time. Their action plans and trackers will be reviewed and they will receive feedback on their homework.
