Effect of Study Duration and Incentivization on Adherence to Workplace Sedentary Behavior Reduction Interventions: A Literature Review
Description
The research shows that existing interventions that attempt to reduce sedentary behavior are effective. The purposes of this review were to examine: (1) how adherent individuals are to workplace sedentary behavior interventions in the short and long term and (2) how the use of incentives impact adherence in the short and long term. It was found that short-term studies showed higher rates of adherence than medium-term studies. Studies that used incentives showed lower rates of adherence than studies that did not use incentives. Medium-term studies that used incentives showed the same rates of adherence as short-term studies that used incentives, indicating that incentives can benefit adherence in longer term interventions.
