Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of A's used per visit per discussion of physical activity

    The mean 5A Score of patients from clinicians who complete the communicatin interventon will be higher thant the mean 5A Score of patients from physicisns that have not been trained. Analytic plan: Unadjusted analysis will use two-sample t-tests to compare means. Adjusted analyses will use linear mixed effects models as described in the Statistical Analysis section.

  • Patient-centered Communication Constructs

Study Arms (1)

5A Communication

NO INTERVENTION

Behavioral: 5 A intervention for physical activity

Other: 5 A communication intervention

Interventions

This study will examine the effect of primary care clinicians' communication intervention linked to a community-based exercise program. We will use the 5As in discussion of physical activity in 371 office visits in an ethnically diverse, primarily low income patient population. Secondary and exploratory aims are to provide pilot information on \[feasibility and sustainability of the intervention from the patients' and clinicians' perspective and derive effect sizes on the intervention's effect on objective changes in physical activity in a subset of participants.

Also known as: ethnically diverse physical activity clinician communication
