NCT ID NCT07446231
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether online programs can help newly retired adults (ages 60-70) become more physically active. 159 participants will be split into three groups: one focusing on identity and habits, one on self-regulation skills, and one on education only. They will wear activity trackers and complete online lessons over 12 months to see which approach works best.
