Change in Sedentary Behavior (Average Hour/Day) Primary · Baseline; 6-week

This metric quantifies the change in the average amount of time spent sedentary each day in hours, from the baseline period to the 6-week follow-up period. It is a marker of time spent inactive.

Change in Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity Secondary · Baseline; 6-week

This measure focuses on the change in average moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) daily minutes after the intervention compared to the pre-intervention average MVPA baseline.

Sponsor's own description

In this six-week behavioral intervention, sedentary older adults will receive daily health messaging via their smart phone to better understand their daily activities and emotions. Participants undergo structural and functional brain imaging before and after the intervention along with measures of their behavioral, emotional and thinking functions.
