Physical Activity Clinical Trial
— BEFITOfficial title:
Behavioral Economics Framingham Incentive Trial: A Randomized Controlled Trial
BE FIT (Behavioral Economics Framingham Incentive Trial) is a pilot study to test the deployment of a social incentive intervention using the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) Offspring, Generation 3, and Omni cohorts to increase physical activity (PA). The investigators will leverage the strength of FHS by recruiting trios and nuclear families to test whether social connectedness increases PA. The investigators will utilize a randomized controlled trial design. The investigators will test a social incentive intervention strategy using a team-based design in which participants work together to jointly achieve their PA goals, and a social connectedness intervention.
