Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Real life usability testing

B) "Real Life" Usability Testing. We will conduct a "real life" usability test in a sample of 6 pediatric cancer survivors. EX@HOME: Patients will perform an individualized aerobic and resistance exercise intervention, choosing from a list of PA, progressing from light to moderate-to-vigorous intensity totaling 30-45 min/d, 4-5 weekly/wk. for 4 weeks. The social-cognitive-theory-based mobile app will support the exercise intervention. One-on-one messaging chats with a PA coach through the mobile app will facilitate exercise goal establishment and attainment.

Interventions

Atomic app

Using the Atomic app to improve physical activity

Primary outcome measure

  • Ease of use and user errors will be documented for each individual during usability testing, by completing several tasks while navigating the mobile app platform [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
  • The Acceptability E-Scale is six-item tool that has been validated for assessing the usability, acceptability, and satisfaction of web based programs with statements ranked on a five point scale from very difficult to very easy [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
