Increasing Physical Activity through Social support and Stress resilience (I-PASS Study)

The I-PASS intervention uses behavioral change techniques to help older adults increase their physical activity, social support, and stress resilience through tech-enhanced goal-setting. Physical activity helps to reduce depression, anxiety, and stress, all of which are believed to contribute to activity’s ability to reduce risk for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. However, only 27-44% of adults aged 65 years and older get the recommended 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week. This trial will examine the role of technology in helping participants gradually incorporate physical activity, social engagement, and stress resilience into daily life using incremental goal-setting.
