Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Leisure-Time Physical Activity Participation | Baseline, midpoint( after 6 weeks of intervention), post-intervention (3 months), and 1-month follow-up | Leisure-time physical activity participation was assessed using self-reported frequency and duration of physical activity. Weekly average participation time (minutes per week) was calculated by multiplying frequency and duration of leisure-time physical activity over the past month. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Intention to Participate in Leisure-Time Physical Activity | Baseline, mid-intervention(after 6 weeks of intervention), and post-intervention(3 months) | Intention to participate in leisure-time physical activity was assessed using three questionnaire items. An average score was calculated to represent participants' intention to engage in leisure-time physical activity in the following month. |
| Leisure-Time Physical Activity-Related Beliefs | Baseline, mid-intervention(after 6 weeks of intervention), and post-intervention(3 months) | Behavioral, normative, and control beliefs related to leisure-time physical activity participation were assessed using a self-administered questionnaire with a nine-point Likert scale ranging from -4 (extremely unlikely) to 4 (extremely likely). |
