Overweight/Obesity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Trial of a Self-directed Behaviour Change Intervention for Physical Activity and Healthy Eating.
Many healthy lifestyle interventions have been developed to help people change their activity
and diet, lose weight and thus reduce their risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and
cardiovascular disorders (CVD). However, these interventions often fail to engage their
target audience, which undermines their effectiveness in changing behaviour and health
outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a self-directed,
website-based intervention to promote physical activity and healthy dietary behaviours. The
intervention frames health information from a novel perspective, which our previous work has
indicated can help to promote interest in the health information and improve attitudes,
self-efficacy and motivation towards physical activity and healthy dietary behaviours.
The intervention comprises a website of information resources and personal recording areas to
set goals and monitor activity and diet, weekly emails and pedometers. In this trial we aim
to see whether the intervention has any impact on people's physical activity and diet, as
well as their risk of developing CVD and T2DM. The intervention will be compared with a
control condition in which participants will be shown standard resources available on NHS
websites. Overweight/obese (BMI 25 - 39.5) males and females aged 35-74 years will be
recruited from the community. The active intervention will last 6 weeks (during this period
participants will receive weekly emails from the research team) and there will be a 6-week
follow-up phase (in which participants will still have access to the website but contact from
the research team). Activity, diet, disease risk markers and psychological antecedents of
behaviour will be assessed at baseline, post-intervention (6-weeks) and post follow-up (12-
weeks).
