A Neighbourhood-oriented approach to foster healthy ageing in low socioeconomic older adults: development and protocol for evaluation through intervention mapping.

The rapid ageing of our society poses significant challenges, including an increase in chronic diseases and loneliness among older adults, leading to higher demands for care and support. Addressing these needs requires an integral approach, especially among older adults with low socioeconomic status (SES). This article details the development of the Neighbourhood Active & Connected (NAC) intervention, using the Intervention Mapping framework to expand an evidence-based physical activity intervention into a neighbourhood-oriented, holistic and systemic strategy for healthy ageing.

"Physical Activity Is Not the Answer to Everything, but It Is to a Lot": Stakeholders' Perceived Determinants of Implementing Physical Activity Interventions for Older Adults.

Although many physical activity (PA) interventions for older adults have proven effective in controlled research settings, optimal implementation in real life remains challenging. This study identifies determinants perceived by stakeholders when implementing community-based PA interventions for older adults. We interviewed 31 stakeholders guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR).

Use and appreciation of combined computer- and mobile-based physical activity interventions within adults aged 50 years and older: Randomized controlled trial.

Objective: To investigate whether six combined computer- and mobile-based physical activity interventions differ regarding use, attrition, usability and appreciation among adults aged 50 years and older.

Methods: The interventions were studied in a randomized controlled trial. Participants were allocated to the computer-based Active Plus or I Move program including a mobile-based activity tracker, or ecological momentary intervention (EMI), or chatbot, or to a waiting list control group.

Promoting the implementation of a computer-tailored physical activity intervention: development and feasibility testing of an implementation intervention.

Background: Although there are many proven effective physical activity (PA) interventions for older adults, implementation in a real world setting is often limited. This study describes the systematic development of a multifaceted implementation intervention targeting the implementation of an evidence-based computer-tailored PA intervention and evaluates its use and feasibility.

Methods: The implementation intervention was developed following the Intervention Mapping (IM) protocol, supplemented with insights from implementation science literature.

The efficacy of online physical activity interventions with added mobile elements within adults aged 50 years and over: Randomized controlled trial.

Electronic health (eHealth) and mobile health (mHealth) could stimulate physical activity (PA) in a time-efficient and cost-effective way. This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate effects on moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) of different combined computer- and mobile-based PA interventions targeted at adults aged 50 years and over. Participants (N = 954) were randomly allocated to a basic existing computer-based intervention (Active Plus [AP] or I Move [IM]) supplemented with one of three mobile elements being (1) activity tracker (AT), (2) ecological momentary intervention (EMI), or (3) chatbot (CB) or a control group (CG).
