Which behaviour change techniques are effective to promote physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviour in adults: a factorial randomized trial of an e- and m-health intervention

Abstract: Background E- and m-health interventions are promising to change health behaviour. Many of these interventions use a large variety of behaviour change techniques (BCTs), but it’s not known which BCTs or which combination of BCTs contribute to their efficacy. Therefore, this experimental study investigated the efficacy of three BCTs (i.e. action planning, coping planning and self-monitoring) and their combinations on physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) against a background set of… Show more

“…This paper addresses these questions through secondary analysis of a digital health intervention that aimed to increase PA or reduce SB among the general population [ 28 , 29 ]. This intervention was developed using the health action process approach (HAPA) model, which describes psychological determinants that guide individuals in changing their behavior [ 30 ].…”

“…Implementation intentions can be achieved through goal setting [ 24 , 34 , 35 ]. Goal setting necessitates competence, which we hypothesised to be attained through a combination of (i) action planning; (ii) guided practice; ii) self-monitoring; iv) feedback on performance and v) planning of coping plans [ 24 , 26 , 34 36 ]. To sustain the behavioural goals requires relatedness, which can be achieved using a combination of social support, role modelling, feedback, planning coping responses and motivation interviewing [ 20 , 24 , 34 ].…”

“…Fourth, the intervention is designed with a combination of eleven evidence based BCT, scientifically proven to enact changes in knowledge, skills, self-efficacy, subjective norms, and social support to create a sustainable behaviour change [ 20 , 35 , 36 , 43 ]. The limitation is that the evidence for the effectiveness of the BCT is exclusively from HIC due to lack of evidence in urban SSA.…”

“…On its own, instructions to perform a behaviour that requires effort is not particularly effective. 59 The combination of BCTs is known to make interventions more effective. Of note, one study used nine BCTs, 42 one used six 26 and another used five.…”
