Item Adaptive goal setting and financial incentives: a 2 × 2 factorial randomized controlled trial to increase adults’ physical activity(BMC, 2017) Adams, Marc A.; Hurley, Jane C.; Todd, Michael; Bhuiyan, Nishat; Jarrett, Catherine L.; Tucker, Wesley J.; Hollingshead, Kevin E.; Angadi, Siddhartha S.Background: Emerging interventions that rely on and harness variability in behavior to adapt to individual performance over time may outperform interventions that prescribe static goals (e.g., 10,000 steps/day). The purpose of this factorial trial was to compare adaptive vs. static goal setting and immediate vs. delayed, non-contingent financial rewards for increasing free-living physical activity (PA).
