چکیده    The purpose of this study was to determine if electronic messaging would increase min of aerobic physical activity (pa) among older adults. participants were active older adults (n = 28; m age = 60 years,sd = 5.99,and range = 51-74 years). using an incomplete within-subjects crossover design,participants were randomly assigned to begin the 4-week study receiving the treatment condition (a morning and evening text message) or the control condition (an evening text message). participants self-reported min of completed aerobic pa by cell phone text. the 1-way within-subjects anova showed significant group differences (p < 0.05). specifically,when participants were in the treatment condition,they reported significantly greater average weekly min of aerobic pa (m = 96.88 min,sd = 62.9) compared to when they completed the control condition (m = 71.68 min,sd = 40.98). electronic messaging delivered via cell phones was effective at increasing min of aerobic pa among older adults. � 2016 chantrell antoine parker and rebecca ellis.
