متن کاملIntervention markers of physical activity maintenance in older adults.
OBJECTIVES To identify intervention components that may promote longterm changes of physical activity among older adults in a behavioral theory-based physical activity trial. METHODS Participants (N = 24; aged 65 ± 8.79 years) shared perceptions of intervention components at the end of the intervention and physical activity was assessed at 18 months. Mixed-methods analyses using a pragmatic c...
