Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A theory-driven, web-based, computer-tailored advice to influence sitting at work was developed. The study investigated the effects of this computer-tailored intervention to influence workplace sitting on behavioural measures.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study investigated the effects of the theory-driven, web-based, computer-tailored intervention to influence workplace sitting on objectively measured sitting time, standing time and breaks from sitting, as well as self-reported context-specific sitting. The computer-tailored advice was compared to a generic advice and a 'no-advice' control at 1-month and 3-months follow-up. The 'tailored' group received a web-based computer-tailored intervention including personalized feedback and tips on how to reduce and/or interrupt workplace sitting. The 'generic' group received a web-based intervention containing generic information and tips to reduce and/or interrupt workplace sitting. The control group was a waitlist control condition and received the generic intervention after completing all measurements. Participants were recruited from a convenience sample of two companies (university and environmental agency) in Flanders (i.e. northern Dutch-speaking part of Belgium), mainly employing desk-based workers, having more than 100 staff members and each having at least three different worksite locations.
