The adoption of a healthy lifestyle plays a crucial role for the health and well-being of health care professionals. Previous e- and mHealth interventions relied on deliberative psychological processes (e.g., intention, planning) to target lifestyle changes, while revealing mixed efficacy. The additional potential of non-deliberative, automatic processes (i.e., habits) for behavior change has been understudied in interventions so far. The Habit Coach mHealth intervention combines deliberative and non-deliberative processes to support health care professionals in forming healthy physical activity, nutrition and mindfulness habits in daily life. The aim of this paper is to outline the study protocol including a detailed description of the mHealth intervention, evaluation plan, and study design. The purpose of this trial is to understand healthy habit formation in health care professionals over time.
A one-arm, multicenter mHealth intervention study will be conducted. Behavioral and psychosocial predictors will be collected via within-app questionnaires across a 100-day period at baseline, post, as well as at weekly assessments. To understand habit formation across time, linear mixed models will be used.
This trial aims to unravel the role of motivational and volitional determinants for healthy habit formation across multiple health behaviors in health care professionals embedded in a mHealth intervention.

健康的生活方式对于医疗保健专业人员的健康和幸福至关重要。以前的电子和移动健康干预措施依赖于深思熟虑的心理过程(例如意图、计划)来针对生活方式的改变,而效果喜忧参半。到目前为止,干预措施对非深思熟虑的自动过程(即习惯)在行为改变方面的潜在影响研究不足。Habit Coach 移动健康干预措施结合了深思熟虑和非深思熟虑的过程,以支持医疗保健专业人员在日常生活中形成健康的体育活动、营养和正念习惯。本文旨在概述研究方案,包括移动健康干预措施的详细描述、评估计划和研究设计。本试验的目的是了解医疗保健专业人员随时间的健康习惯形成情况。
将进行一项单臂、多中心移动健康干预研究。行为和心理社会预测因素将通过在基线、后期以及每周评估时在应用程序内问卷中收集 100 天。为了了解随时间的习惯形成情况,将使用线性混合模型。
本试验旨在揭示动机和意志决定因素在移动健康干预措施中嵌入的医疗保健专业人员多种健康行为中的健康习惯形成中的作用。
