Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Participation. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The score of satisfaction with performance will be measured using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). This score reflects the participants' level of satisfaction with their performance in daily activities, rated on a 10-point scale, where higher scores indicate greater satisfaction.;Participation. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Phone-FITT test is a telephone-based tool designed to measure frequency, intensity, duration, and type of physical activities in older adults across two domains: household and recreational activities. Participants report their level of participation, frequency, and duration of activities. Duration is scored in intervals, and intensity is assessed based on breathing and conversational ability. The participation score for each activity is calculated by summing these components, with zero indicating no participation. The maximum score for each activity is 12. This tool has demonstrated good validity and reliability.;Self-Care Activity. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Self-Care Activity of Chronic Illness Inventory (SCA-CII) is a disease-independent tool designed to assess self-care activities. It consists of three subscales: self-care maintenance, self-care monitoring, and self-care management. The 20-item questionnaire uses a 5-point Likert scale. Participants rate maintenance and monitoring activities by answering "How often do you usually perform these items?" from never to always. For management activities, they respond to "How likely are you to perform these | — |

| Adherence. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Self-Report Habit Index (SRHI) is designed to assess habit formation based on habit strength, repetition history, behavior control, awareness, and efficacy. This is a 12-item, single-factor questionnaire. It uses 5-, 7-, or 11-point Likert scales to measure agreement or disagreement with each item.;Adherence. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Self-Report Behavioral Automaticity Index (SRBAI) consists of 4 items designed to assess behavioral automaticity as a measure of habit strength. Participants rate the extent to which they perform a behavior automatically on a 7-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree).;Adherence. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Generic Multifaceted Automaticity Scale is designed to assess various dimensions of habit formation. In addition to measuring habit strength through overall behavioral automaticity, it evaluates metacognitive aspects such as lack of control, lack of intention, and efficiency. The scale consists of 9 items rated on a 5-point Likert scale.;Adherence. Timepoint: Baseline, post-intervention (The duration will be determined after the pilot study), and follow-up (For the same duration as the study). Method of measurement: The Daily Habit Index assesses daily habits across 7 domains, including hygiene, leisure activities, housekeeping, exercise, and sleep. It consists of 38 items measuring frequency and automaticity of behaviors on a 0 to 5 Likert scale. Two final questions identify other habits not listed.;Adherence. Timepoint: Ba | — |
