Actual (reported)The primary aim of the study is to examine whether the provision of personalised multidimensional physical activity profiles (derived from technological advances in physical activity monitoring) is supported by instantaneous physical activity feedback in fostering a meaningful change in physical activity behaviour amongst adults.

Actual (reported)Change in physical activity level (PAL)
Mean physical activity level (PAL) as calculated using the formula average daily total energy expenditure/basal metabolic rate (Kcal). Minute by minute energy expenditure (TEE) will be objective measured using the SenseWear Armband (Bodymedia, software version 8.0). For assessment, monitors will be initialised with each individual's personal information (age, gender, height, and weight) and participants will be advised on how to fit and wear the devices. Participants will be asked to wear the monitor(s) for 7 days (including while sleeping) and will be asked to remove the monitors briefly for showers or water activities. As well as PAL the energy expenditure assessment will be used to determine total and average daily minutes of light intensity activity (greater than 1.5METs) moderate intensity activity (greater than 3METs); vigorous intensity activity (greater than 6 METs), accumulated moderate to vigorous activity bouts of 10 minutes and daily sedentary time.

Participants randomised into the intervention group will be invited to return to the university for a one-off 60 minute set-up session once their physical activity monitor has been returned and processed. Within this session the participant will be given detailed instructions on how to use and wear the activity monitor and real time display and upload their data to and navigate the multidimensional feedback web platform (See materials section for details). They will also be introduced to the concept of goal setting and talked through the different aspects of the instantaneous feedback display and how that might benefit them. Following this visit the participant will be given licence to wear and use the physical activity monitoring devices for a 6-week period and encouraged to self-monitor their behaviour using the combined instantaneous and multidimensional feedback.
Participants who have been randomised into the control arm will be put on a 3 month waiting list to receive the intervention described above. They will still attend assessment visits at week 6 and week 12 while they are not receiving any advice or feedback. Following their 12 week assessment, participants in the control arm will be invited to attend the same 60 minute set-up session as received by the intervention group and then provided with the armband monitor and display to then receive the intervention in full. No further post-intervention or follow-up assessments will be taken from these participants.
