INTRODUCTION
A pedometer helps adults exercise more, but sedentary adults need instruction and advice to be motivated to use one. We conducted this qualitative study to describe the experiences of participants at high risk of type 2 diabetes who began using a pedometer.
METHODS
A total of 74 people at high risk of type 2 diabetes participated in 6 months of group counseling. From April 2007 to April 2008, we collected data through questionnaires, theme interviews (n = 22) and video recordings of counseling sessions. From October 2007 through June 2008, we analyzed the data.
RESULTS
Pedometers were useful tools for observing levels of exercise, setting personal goals for walking, and helping evaluate whether daily goals were met. Negative experiences were associated with functional failures, pedometers' unsuitability for exercise other than walking, and the goal of 10,000 steps, which some participants considered too high.
CONCLUSION
Sedentary adults can be motivated to use a pedometer if we inform them that regular users find it a useful instrument for increasing their level of exercise. These adults should set realistic goals for walking and receive adequate instructions for using pedometers.
简介
计步器有助于成年人增加运动量，但久坐的成年人需要接受指导和建议才能有动力使用计步器。我们开展了这项定性研究，以描述开始使用计步器的 2 型糖尿病高危人群的体验。
方法
共有 74 名 2 型糖尿病高危者参加了为期 6 个月的小组咨询。我们通过问卷调查、主题访谈（n=22）和咨询会议的视频记录收集了 2007 年 4 月至 2008 年 4 月的数据。2007 年 10 月至 2008 年 6 月，我们对数据进行了分析。
结果
计步器是观察运动水平、为步行设定个人目标以及帮助评估是否达到每日目标的有用工具。负面体验与功能故障、计步器不适合步行以外的运动以及 10000 步的目标有关，一些参与者认为这个目标太高了。
结论
如果我们告知久坐的成年人，经常使用计步器的人会发现它是增加运动量的有用工具，他们就会有动力使用计步器。这些成年人应设定合理的步行目标，并获得使用计步器的充分指导。
