Brief Summary:
The goal of this study was to explore the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a feasibility randomised controlled trial of culturally appropriate physical activity (PA) promotion strategies among older Chinese adults living in the UK.
The main questions the study aimed to answer were:
Whether older Chinese adults in the UK were willing to take part in the study and to be randomly assigned to a group
Whether participants were willing to remain in the study for its full duration
Whether participants were willing to engage with the PA promotion strategies, including attending workshops, using a logbook, wearing a pedometer, and joining a social media support group
Whether participants found the PA promotion strategies and outcome measures acceptable
Whether physical activity, physical function, and quality of life showed changes in the intervention and control groups
Researchers compared the culturally appropriate PA promotion strategies with a World Health Organization (WHO) PA recommendation leaflet. The study lasted 18 weeks, including a 12-week intervention and a 6-week follow-up.
Participants in the intervention group received culturally appropriate PA promotion materials, including booklets, workshops, a social media support group, a resistance band for strength and balance exercises, and a pedometer.
Participants in the control group received a WHO PA information leaflet and a pedometer.
Participants in both groups completed data collection at three time points. At each time point, participants were asked to wear a pedometer for 7 days.
