The aim of the study was to assess changes in employees' sedentary behavior after a brief self-directed intervention in a flexible workplace.
A total of 30 employees (69% female; 39.5 ± 9 years) completed an online questionnaire before and after a 6-week intervention. The intervention comprised one group-based action planning session, using a smart activity tracker for self-monitoring, weekly email reminders, and a healthy living seminar.
Total self-reported sitting time (including occupational and nonoccupational sitting) decreased nonsignificantly on days when working at the office (MΔ = -56 min/d, 95% confidence interval [CI], -128.5 to 17.0) and increased nonsignificantly when working at home (MΔ = 20.5 min/d, 95% CI, -64.5 to 105.5). The program had high acceptability in this participant group.
Brief self-directed interventions using activity tracker devices show promise and may be highly acceptable in a flexible workplace. Additional strategies may be needed to create change in sedentary behavior.
本研究旨在评估在灵活的工作环境中进行简短的自我指导干预后，员工久坐行为的变化。
共有 30 名员工（69%为女性；39.5±9 岁）在 6 周干预前后完成了在线问卷调查。该干预包括一次基于小组的行动计划会议、使用智能活动追踪器进行自我监测、每周电子邮件提醒和健康生活研讨会。
在办公室工作时，总自我报告的久坐时间（包括职业和非职业久坐时间）无显著减少（MΔ=-56 分钟/天，95%置信区间[CI]，-128.5 至 17.0），在家工作时无显著增加（MΔ=20.5 分钟/天，95%CI，-64.5 至 105.5）。该方案在该参与者群体中具有较高的可接受性。
使用活动追踪器设备的简短自我指导干预措施显示出了希望，并且在灵活的工作场所中可能具有较高的可接受性。可能需要采取额外的策略来改变久坐行为。
