Interventions

  • Web-App based Lifestyle Physical Activity Promotion Program — BEHAVIORAL
    WPAPP-K includes group and individual coaching/support by health care providers, peer coaching/support, and information to change the women's attitudes, self-efficacy, perceived barriers, and social influences. The program includes 3 components in 2 languages (English and Korean): 1. Social media sites: allow participants to share their experiences and to receive individual and group coaching/ support from culturally matched peers and healthcare providers. 2. Interactive online educational sessions: information on 15 topics related to depressive symptoms and lifestyle physical activity. 3. Online Resources: include 20 links in English or Korean (only from scientific authorities including NIH, CDC,etc.). Weekly group coaching and support will start after the first 10 participants are enrolled, but individual coaching/support will start as soon as a participant enrolls.
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website on depression and physical activity guidelines — BEHAVIORAL
    A link to the CDC website will be provided through the project website, and participants will be asked to use it during the study period (12 months). Their use of the CDC website will be automatically measured through the project website.
