Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
A four-group randomized controlled study was conducted amongst 40 inactive adults over a 12-week period during the COVID-19 pandemic. One group (WFT, n = 10) received a wearable fitness tracker, a second (MI, n=10) received bi-weekly MI sessions, a third (WFT+, n=10) received both, and a fourth (Education, n=10) received basic PA education. Outcome measures for motivation and PA were measured though an online survey before and after the 12-week period.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Education
Education
These participants will receive general physical activity guidelines education and information on strategies to reach the recommended amount of activity per week during the initial baseline assessment meeting. These participants will not do any other study related activities. At the conclusion of the study, these participants will be offered the chance to participate in one MI session.
Motivational Interviewing
Motivational Interviewing
The individuals will be scheduled for and participate in six biweekly in person SDT based MI sessions. These sessions will take place in the HPCRL at CSU. The MI sessions will be conducted by a PhD student who has been trained by a MI practitioner. Participants will be provided a log book and will be asked to log their PA, with the goal of completing at least 150 minutes of PA per week. They will set biweekly PA goals, which will be discussed in the MI sessions. These participants will also receive general physical activity guidelines education and information on strategies to reach the recommended amount of activity per week during the initial baseline assessment meeting.
Wearable Fitness Tracker
Wearable Fitness Trackers
Individuals assigned to this experimental condition will be given a wrist-worn WFT and will be instructed to wear it for the duration of the study. They will also download the corresponding mobile application on their smartphones. They will be trained by a member of our team on how to utilize the WFT and mobile application. The intended WFT tracks daily steps, miles traveled, kcals expended, and daily activity time. This device provides these data to the wearer via a small screen. Participants will be instructed to aim to complete at least 150 minutes of PA per week. Researchers will have the capability to track participant daily PA via the WFT and associated API. These individuals will be asked to set biweekly PA goals. These participants will also receive general physical activity guidelines education and information on strategies to reach the recommended amount of activity per week during the initial baseline assessment meeting.

These individuals will be given the wrist-worn WFT, be instructed to wear it for the duration of the study AND be scheduled for six SDT based MI sessions. These participants will also be trained by a member of our team on how to utilize the WFT and associated application. They will be instructed to aim to complete 150 minutes of PA per week. These participants will be asked to set biweekly PA goals which will be discussed in MI sessions. Researchers will have the capability to track participant daily PA via the WFT and associated API. These participants will also receive general physical activity guidelines education and information on strategies to reach the recommended amount of activity per week during the initial baseline assessment meeting.
