Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: To promote physical activity in post-treatment cancer survivors, a mobile application WExercise was developed using the Multi-Process Action Control Framework. It contains 10 weekly online lesson to facilitate reflective, regulatory, and reflexive processes to help participants to form and sustain physical activity behavior.
UNASSIGNED: To test the usability and acceptability of WExercise in post-treatment cancer survivors.
UNASSIGNED: This study involved four phases: (1) preparing application content, (2) expert panel review (comprising oncology healthcare workers, exercise specialists, and behavior change researchers), (3) developing the app, and (4) usability test. The usability test was conducted cross-sectionally using direct observation of application navigation tasks, a quantitative survey, and qualitative interviews among 10 post-treatment cancer survivors.
UNASSIGNED: In Phase 2, the expert panel rated the application highly on relevance, accuracy, comprehensiveness, meaningfulness, and easiness to understand (average score = 3.83 out of 4). The application was developed accordingly. In Phase 4, the System Usability Score was 75 %, greater than the cut-off point. Participants gave the items assessing acceptance of the application positive ratings (e.g., satisfaction = 4.30 out of 5). Based on the performance and feedback, the application was modified, including adjusting the font size and improving the visualization of buttons.
UNASSIGNED: Overall, experts and potential users considered the application relevant, usable, and acceptable. It has the full potential for further testing in a larger trial for its effectiveness in promoting physical activity in cancer survivors.
摘要:
为了促进治疗后癌症幸存者的体育锻炼,使用多进程行动控制框架开发了一个移动应用程序WExercise。它包含10个每周在线课程,以促进反思,监管,和反思过程,以帮助参与者形成和维持身体活动行为。
测试WExercise在治疗后癌症幸存者中的可用性和可接受性。
这项研究包括四个阶段:(1)准备申请内容,(2)专家小组审查(包括肿瘤学医护人员,锻炼专家,和行为改变研究人员),(3)开发app,和(4)可用性测试。可用性测试是通过直接观察应用程序导航任务进行的横截面测试,定量调查,和10名治疗后癌症幸存者的定性访谈。
在第二阶段,专家小组对应用程序的相关性进行了高度评价,准确度,全面性,有意义,和易于理解(平均得分=3.83分4)。相应地开发了应用程序。在第4阶段,系统可用性评分为75%,大于截止点。参与者给予评估申请接受情况的项目正面评级(例如,满意度=5中的4.30)。根据绩效和反馈,应用程序被修改,包括调整字体大小和改善按钮的可视化。
总的来说,专家和潜在用户认为应用程序相关,可用,并且可以接受。它具有在更大的试验中进一步测试其在促进癌症幸存者身体活动方面的有效性的全部潜力。
