A Mobility-Focused Knowledge Translation Randomized Controlled Trial to Improve Physical Activity: Process Evaluation of the Move4Age Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Maintaining physical activity and physical function is important for healthy aging. We recently completed a randomized controlled trial of a targeted knowledge translation (KT) intervention delivered through the McMaster Optimal Aging Portal with the goal to increase physical activity and physical mobility in middle-aged and older adults, with results reported elsewhere.

Objective

The purpose of this process evaluation study is to explore which KT strategies were used by both intervention and control group participants, as well as the intervention groups' engagement, satisfaction, and perceived usefulness of the targeted KT intervention.

Methods

Data on engagement with the intervention materials were gathered quantitatively through Google Analytics and Hoot
