Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate whether and how 'MyPlan 2.0' helps older adults to be more physically active or less sedentary. Two groups will be created, an intervention group and a waiting-list control group.

Conditions

Overweight

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Change in objective total, light and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (PA)

  Change in amount of total, light and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, measured via accelerometers

  Pretest, posttest (6 weeks) and follow-up (6 months)

• Change in objective sedentary behaviour

  Change in amount of total sitting time, measured via accelerometers

  Pretest, posttest (6 weeks) and follow-up (6 months)

• Change in self-reported total, moderate and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (PA) as well as total work-related, transport-related, household-related and leisure time PA.

  Change in amount of total, light and moderate-to-vigorous PA well as total work-related, transport-related, household-related and leisure time PA will be measured via the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The IPAQ measures physical activity in four domains: work, transport, household and leisure time. Higher scores indicate higher levels of physical activity. For each scale the minimum value is 0. We will use the method described by Dubuy et al. (2013) to truncate the data.

  Pretest, posttest (6 weeks) and follow-up (6 months)

• Change in self-reported sedentary behaviour

  Change in amount of total sitting time, measured via the LASA sedentary behaviour self-report questionnaire. The total score is calculated by summing all 10 items.The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 24 hours. However, data will be truncated at 16 hours.

  Pretest, posttest (6 weeks) and follow-up (6 months)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

• Change in self-efficacy

  Pretest, after week 1, after week 2, after week 3, after week 4, posttest (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months)

• Change in outcome expectancies

  Pretest, after week 1, after week 2, after week 3, after week 4, posttest (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months

• Change in risk perception

  Pretest, after week 1, after week 2, after week 3, after week 4, posttest (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months

• Change in intention

  Pretest, after week 1, after week 2, after week 3, after week 4, posttest (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months

• Change in action planning

  Pretest, after week 1, after week 2, after week 3, after week 4, posttest (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive the e- and mHealth intervention 'MyPlan 2.0'.

Behavioral: MyPlan 2.0

Waiting List control group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will not receive the e- and mHealth intervention 'MyPlan 2.0', but will be given access to the intervention after all testing phases.

Other: Waiting List

Interventions

MyPlan 2.0 BEHAVIORAL

MyPlan 2.0 consists of five sessions. During these five sessions the following behaviour change techniques are used to motivate users to be more physically active or to sit less: exploring risk perceptions and perceived benefits, exploring social support, providing feedback, action planning, coping planning and monitoring.

Intervention group

Waiting List OTHER

Waiting List control group
