Just-in-Time Feedback in Diet and Physical Activity Interventions: Systematic Review and Practical Design Framework.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The integration of body-worn sensors with mobile devices presents a tremendous opportunity to improve just-in-time behavioral interventions by enhancing bidirectional communication between investigators and their participants. This approach can be used to deliver supportive feedback at critical moments to optimize the attainment of health behavior goals.

Objective

The goals of this systematic review were to summarize data on the content characteristics of feedback messaging used in diet and physical activity (PA) interventions and to develop a practical framework for designing just-in-time feedback for behavioral interventions.

Methods

Interventions that included just-in-time feedback on PA, sedentary behavior, or dietary intake were eligible for inclusion.
