Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: GetActive with FitbitExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The GetActive with Fitbit is identical to that of the p3RP with the addition of a digital monitoring device (i.e., Fitbit) for recording of physical activity.
Group II: GetActiveExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The GetActive program uses a multimodal approach to introduce and reinforce new skills, including didactics, in-session activities, discussions, and weekly practice assignments (homework). The GetActive sessions reflect a purposeful integration of the three treatment approaches (relaxation methods, stress appraisal & coping, and growth enhancement). The format is a 10-week program with weekly meetings and a focus on relaxation response strategies, cognitive behavioral training, positive psychology and mind-body interactions.
