背景：随着成年人年龄的增长，他们的身体活动减少，久坐行为增加，导致负面健康结果的风险增加。可穿戴式电子活动监测器有望提供有效的行为改变技术。然而，对于非Fitbit可穿戴设备（Fitbit, Inc ., San Francisco, California）与55岁以上成年人的电话咨询相结合的可行性和可接受性知之甚少。目的：我们研究的目的是确定55-79岁成人中可穿戴式体力活动监测仪、平板设备和电话咨询相结合的干预措施的可行性、可接受性及其对体力活动的影响。方法：成人(N=40，年龄55 ~ 79岁，体重指数25 ~ 35；
Background: As adults age, their physical activity decreases and sedentary behavior increases, leading to increased risk of negative health outcomes. Wearable electronic activity monitors have shown promise for delivering effective behavior change techniques. However, little is known about the feasibility and acceptability of non-Fitbit wearables (Fitbit, Inc, San Francisco, California) combined with telephone counseling among adults aged more than 55 years.Objective: The purpose of our study was to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and effect on physical activity of an intervention combining a wearable physical activity monitor, tablet device, and telephone counseling among adults aged 55-79 years.Methods: Adults (N=40, aged 55-79 years, body mass index=25-35,
