Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop a Smart mHealth Strategy that delivers behavior change techniques through wearable physical activity trackers and social media chatbots, including self-monitoring, real-time feedback and reminders, goal-setting, competition and rewards, social support, and health coaching. This study also aims to explore the effect of the Smart mHealth Strategy on the behavioral outcomes and psychological factors of physical activity, and physical and mental health. The study design is a three-stage randomized controlled trial. In each stage, 120 are recruited and randomly assigned to control and experimental groups. Participants are adults with insufficient physical activity and a sedentary lifestyle. The Smart mHealth Strategy uses smartwatches and self-developed chatbots. The constrained dialogue content is designed to finally deliver the six behavior change techniques. Data are collected in the pre-, mid-, and post-tests. The measurement includes self-administered questionnaires, Actigraphy GT9X, Inbody 270S, OMRON HEM-7130, and heart rate variability monitors.
