ABSTRACT:

Background

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common spinal deformity typically treated with exercise therapy. Despite the increasing use of digital technologies in interventions, there remains a gap in understanding how to effectively integrate behavior change techniques (BCTs) and behavior theories within these digital solutions.
