Primary | Physical Activity | ActivPAL: Sitting and standing will be measured objectively using the ActivPAL device. The ActivPAL provides reliable measures of total sitting time and standing time, and number of sit-to-stand transitions per hour (Lyden et al. 2012). ActiGraph (GT3X+): Physical activity intensity and duration will be measured objectively using the ActiGraph activity monitor.The GT3X reliably classifies physical activity intensity in free-living environments (Ozemek et al. 2014). Activity diaries: These dairies will be used to assess the type and context of physical activity behaviour. A text reminder will be sent to all participants once daily for the duration of the data collection period. Text message models have shown some success in increasing compliance to research (Armstrong et al. 2009). |
Measured 5 times over 13 months, for seven days each time. Time points = baseline, 1-2weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months |
