“…Federal initiatives (ie, Healthy People 2020) call for physical activity programs for people with disabilities and chronic health conditions, yet our study reveals a lack of phase 4 and 5 research evaluating and disseminating evidence based interventions. Though consistent with other disability groups [23‐27] this finding suggests research in physical activity promotion for people with PD is very early in its development.…”

“…As the distribution of research demonstrates, there is a clear need for further studies in phases 3‐5 of the framework. Although this finding is consistent with physical activity research status for other populations, including spinal cord injury [23], spina bifida [24], traumatic brain injury [25], multiple sclerosis [26], and stroke [27], successful implementation of physical activity programs and policies for people with PD hinge on systematically building on the evidence.…”

“…First, we chose to use only 3 search engines to complete the search (PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO‐host). Although this approach is consistent with others applying this behavioral framework [23‐27], it is possible select peer‐reviewed articles may have been missed. Second, we excluded studies that were not available in English.…”

“…This behavioral framework has been described thoroughly elsewhere by Sallis et al [22] and applied to other populations [23‐27]. In brief, in this behavioral framework, research that relationally links physical activity and health‐related outcomes (ie, strength, cognition, quality of life) is classified in phase 1.…”

“…Knowing that a large group of TBI patients tend to be in or just before the most productive years of their life (Faul, Xu, Wald, & Coronado, 2010), it is our opinion that this group deserves special attention concerning rehabilitation services. Unfortunately, the physical exercise research for TBI patients is still in the initial stages (Pawlowski, Dixon-Ibarra, & Driver, 2013).…”

Abstract. OBJECTIVE:To determine whether physical exercise enhances cognition following TBI or stroke. DATA SOURCES: Studies were identified through searches of PubMed, ScienceDirect and the reference lists of papers that were included for full-text evaluation. Medical subject headings from three concepts, i.e. brain injury, physical exercise and cognition, were used to incorporate related search terms. STUDY SELECTION: Included were all trials published in English that assessed cognition before and after an exercise intervention in human adults with TBI or stroke. Nine randomized and two non-randomized controlled trials, as well as three single group pre-post studies were included. DATA EXTRACTION: Relevant data concerning the methods and results of the included studies were extracted. Methodological quality of the RCT's was evaluated using the PEDro scale. Non-randomized trials were assessed using the Downs and Black checklist. DATA SYNTHESIS: The included trials were generally of medium methodological quality, though often plagued with issues of internal and external validity. The studies exhibited great heterogeneity, rendering a meta-analysis infeasible. CONCLUSIONS: Though well-designed studies are still needed, the preponderance of evidence suggests a positive effect of physical exercise on global cognitive functioning, especially in the chronic stages of a brain injury. Time after injury as well as the duration of the exercise program are mediating factors.

Background and Objective The World Health Organization physical activity guidelines for people living with disability do not consider the needs of people living with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury. This paper describes the qualitative co-development of a discrete choice experiment survey to inform the adaption of these guidelines by identifying the physical activity preferences of people living with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury in Australia. Methods The research team comprised researchers, people with lived experience of traumatic brain injury and health professionals with expertise in traumatic brain injury. We followed a four-stage process: (1) identification of key constructs and initial expression of attributes, (2) critique and refinement of attributes, (3) prioritisation of attributes and refinement of levels and (4) testing and refining language, format and comprehensibility. Data collection included deliberative dialogue, focus groups and think-aloud interviews with 22 purposively sampled people living with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury. Strategies were used to support inclusive participation. Analysis employed qualitative description and framework methods. Results This formative process resulted in discarding, merging, renaming and reconceptualising attributes and levels. Attributes were reduced from an initial list of 17 to six: (1) Type of activity, (2) Out-of-pocket cost, (3) Travel time, (4) Who with, (5) Facilitated by and (6) Accessibility of setting. Confusing terminology and cumbersome features of the survey instrument were also revised. Challenges included purposive recruitment, reducing diverse stakeholder views to a few attributes, finding the right language and navigating the complexity of discrete choice experiment scenarios. Conclusions This formative co-development process significantly improved the relevance and comprehensibility of the discrete choice experiment survey tool. This process may be applicable in other discrete choice experiment studies. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40271-023-00628-9.
