Data on physical activity participation and related quality of life indicators (e.g., improved physical functioning, fitness, sleep) will be collected at baseline, 6 months, 12 month post-test and 18 month follow-up. The primary hypotheses are:\n\n* participants in either physical activity counseling condition will show greater improvements in physical activity participation at 12 months compared to the attention-control condition;\n* participants in the human counselor condition will show greater improvements in physical activity at 12 months relative to the computer condition; and\n* participants in the computer condition will show better maintenance of physical activity between 12 and 18 months compared to participants in the human counselor condition.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '55 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Men and women ages 55 and older\n* Free of any medical condition that would limit participation in independent exercise\n* Not currently engaged in a regular pattern of physical conditioning\n* Free of clinical psychopathology\n* Stable on current medications\n* Planning to remain in the geographic area through the duration of the trial\n* Able to read and speak English sufficiently to understand protocol materials\n* Can use the telephone unaided\n* Willing to accept random assignment to any study condition\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Under the age of 55\n* Currently under treatment for an acute, serious medical condition (e.g., cancer, heart disease, stroke)\n* Physically active on a regular basis (i.e. performing more than 60 minutes per week of aerobic physical activity of at least a moderate intensity)\n* Unstable and/or uncontrolled on medications for high blood pressure or depression\n* Unable or unwilling to use a telephone unaided\n* Unwilling to accept random assignment to study condition'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00131092', 'briefTitle': 'The CHAT (Community Health Advice by Telephone) Study', 'organization': {'class': 'NIH', 'fullName': 'National Institute on Aging (NIA)'}, 'officialTitle': 'Exercise Advice by Human or Computer: Testing 2 Theories', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'AG0033'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'R01AG016587', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/R01AG016587', 'type': 'NIH'}, {'id': 'Sponsored Proj.
