Aspects of program engagement in an online physical activity intervention and baseline predictors of engagement.
The authors described participant engagement in ActiveGOALS, a 3-month, self-directed online physical activity (PA) intervention and identified the baseline factors related to engagement. Participants were adult primary care patients aged 21-70 years. Program engagement was found to be high, but average time between completed lessons was longer than expected and participants only contacted their coach about 1 of every 3 weeks. Individual predictors related to health, health care, demographics, lifestyle, and quality of life were significantly related to engagement. The authors concluded that examining multiple aspects of engagement and a large number of potential predictors might be needed to determine facilitators and barriers for high engagement in multi-faceted online intervention programs.
