Goal Setting and Exercise Intensity Intervention
BehavioralParticipants' goal-setting and exercise intensity are manipulated based on group assignment.
NCT Number: NCT06769022
The purpose of this study is to conduct a small-scale test of a goals-based program to help people to exercise more and learn what people like or don't like about the procedures. This program is being designed for individuals aged 45-65 from the Black community. Low levels of physical activity are related to health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline. People of color are more negatively impacted by these conditions and have also historically been underrepresented by research seeking to increase physical activity. The investigators have developed this goals-based exercise promotion program with the help of a Black-led community-based organization (The Gyedi Project) and a Community Advisory Board made up of stakeholders in the Black community, and now the investigators are conducting a trial of its feasibility and acceptability.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Participants' goal-setting and exercise intensity are manipulated based on group assignment.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Blood pressure of all participants is collected before intervention
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Exercise Intensity (PAR). Answers are direct (ex. how many hours active) and not scaled. Information is requested for the week and the past 3 months.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Exercise Intensity (PAR). Answers are direct (ex. how many hours did you sleep) and are not scaled. Information is requested for the past 7 days.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Exercise Intensity (PAR). Answers are direct (ex. how many hours did you sleep) and are not scaled. Information is requested for the past 7 days.
Time frame: Baseline
Multidimensional Black Identity Scale to collect information on identity. Questions are about personal identity relating to the Black community on a scale of 1-7, 1 being strongly disagree and 7 being strongly agree. Higher scores indicate a stronger agreement with that dimension of Black identity. Scores are summed as subscales and averaged to obtain an average score.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
CHAMPS. The survey collects quantitative data looking at the approximate total hours per week spent doing various activities, both physical and social.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
L-Cat. Single question that asks about frequency/rigor of physical activity, with six potential answers ranging from no physical activity to daily physical activity.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 12 (~1 month after baseline), Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Intrinsic Motivation Inventory. Questions relate to how participants think or feel about physical activity, with answers ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Broader scores are broken up into subscales; final subscale scores are summed and averaged. Higher scores indicate higher agreement with that subscale.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 12 (~1 month after baseline), Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Self-Efficacy. 9 questions about confidence in exercise on scale of 1 (disagree strongly) to 7 (agree strongly). Higher scores indicate higher perceived confidence in doing that activity. Total scores are summed.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 12 (~1 month after baseline), Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Exercise Intention Survey. Scored on a Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree) to indicate level of agreement to statements related to intention to exercise. Scores are summed to produce a total score. Higher scores indicate stronger intention to exercise, lower scores indicate weaker intention.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 12 (~1 month after baseline), Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Exercise Identity Score. Scored on a Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree) to indicate level of agreement to statements related to attitudes towards exercise. Scores are summed and averaged to provide an overall score. Higher scores indicate a positive attitude towards exercise, lower scores less favorable attitude.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Heart Rate Variability is measured using chest strap monitor.
Time frame: Baseline, Visits 1-14 (all visits)
HR is measured using chest strap monitor.
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
Short Physical Performance Battery. Physical performance measured with repeated chair stands, three balance tests (side-by-side, semi-tandem, tandem), timed walking.
Time frame: Baseline
Talk Test. Graded treadmill test where intensity is increased at intervals to determine participant's ventilatory threshold.
Time frame: Visit 2-13 (~2 visits/week)
A single-item measure from Borg (1973) was used to assess participants' rate of perceived exertion (RPE) during the exercise bout. Participants were asked to rate the average intensity of exercise [at that moment/during the past ten minutes] on a 25-point scale ranging from 6 (no exertion at all) to 20 (maximal exertion).
Time frame: Visit 2-13 (~2 visits/week)
A single item measure from Borg (1998) was used to assess participants' pain levels during the exercise bout. Participants were asked to indicate how much pain they felt [at that moment/during the past ten minutes] on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 (nothing at all) to 10 (excruciating).
Time frame: Visit 2-13 (~2 visits/week)
The Feeling Scale, a single-item measure from Hardy and Rejeski (1989), was used to assess participants' affective valence during the exercise bout. Participants were asked to indicate how they felt [at that moment/during the past ten minutes] on an 11-point scale ranging from -5 (very bad) to +5 (very good).
Time frame: Visit 2-13 (~2 visits/week)
The Felt Arousal Scale, a single-item measure from Svebak and Murgatroyd (1985), was used to assess participants' affective arousal during the exercise bout. Participants were asked to indicate how "worked-up" they felt [at that moment/during the past ten minutes] on a 6-point scale ranging from 1 (low arousal) to 6 (high arousal).
Time frame: Visit 2-13 (~2 visits/week)
A single item measure from Gillman and Bryan (2015) was used to assess participants' enjoyment levels during the exercise bout. Participants were asked to indicate how enjoyable exercise was [at that moment/during the past ten minutes] on a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (no enjoyment at all) to 5 (a great deal of enjoyment).
Time frame: Daily between visit 13 and 14 (~1 month)
Three short questions assessing if the participant planned to engage in exercise and how many minutes of moderate (0-120) and vigorous (0-60) exercise they engaged in
Time frame: Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)
An investigator led interview to pilot study participants' experience of the intervention and suggestions for improvement
Time frame: Baseline, Visit 12 (~1 month after baseline), Visit 14 (~2 months after baseline)

Time frame: Baseline
Height, weight, waist circumference, and hip circumference will be measured
