Abstract

Physical inactivity has been associated with several health problems, including diabetes, obesity, and heart disease. Although many of these health problems are preventable through regular exercise, a small percentage of the adult population engages in the recommended levels. Reinforcement-based interventions have been implemented successfully to promote physical activity, but studies targeting moderate or vigorous physical exercise using behavior-analytic interventions are scarce. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the feasibility of a multicomponent intervention that provided monetary incentives for increasing running, jogging, or brisk walking distance for five adults. The intervention lasted 6 weeks and comprised weekly goal setting, feedback, public posting, and group contingencies. The results of the study suggest that the intervention may be feasible and effective at increasing moderate physical activity to levels recommended by the federal guidelines, but further research is warranted.

多组分干预增加中等强度体育锻炼效果的试验研究。
缺乏运动与一些健康问题有关,包括糖尿病、肥胖和心脏病。虽然这些健康问题中有许多是可以通过经常锻炼来预防的,但只有一小部分成年人达到了建议的运动量。以强化为基础的干预措施已经成功地实施,以促进身体活动,但针对使用行为分析干预措施进行适度或剧烈体育锻炼的研究很少。本研究的目的是调查一种多成分干预的可行性,该干预为五名成年人增加跑步、慢跑或快走的距离提供了金钱激励。干预持续了6周,包括每周目标设定、反馈、公开发帖和小组突发事件。研究结果表明,干预措施可能是可行和有效的,可以将适度的体育活动增加到联邦指导方针建议的水平,但需要进一步的研究。
