Development of a theory and evidence-based digital intervention tool for weight...
Marques, Marta; Matos, Marcela; Mattila, Elina; Encantado, Jorge; Duarte, Cristiana; Teixeira, Pedro; Stubbs, James; Sniehotta, Falko; Ermes, MiikkaBackground: Many weight loss programs show short-term effectiveness, but subsequent weight loss maintenance is difficult to achieve. Digital technologies offer promising means to delivering behaviour change approaches at low cost and on a wide scale. The NoHoW project was a European Commission H2020-funded project aimed to develop, test, and evaluate a digital Toolkit designed to promote successful long-term we...

Mattila, Elina; Hansen, Susanne; Bundgaard, Lise; Ramsey, Lauren; Dunning, Alice; Silva, Marlene N.; Harjumaa, Marja; Ermes, Miikka; Marques, Marta M.Background: Digital behavior change interventions (DBCIs) offer a promising channel for providing health promotion services. However, user experience largely determines whether they are used, which is a precondition for effectiveness. Objective: The primary aim of this study is to evaluate user experiences with the NoHoW Toolkit (TK)—a DBCI that targets weight loss maintenance—over a 12-month period by using a ...

Evidence-Based Digital Tools for Weight Loss Maintenance: The NoHoW Project
Stubbs, R. James; Duarte, Cristiana; Palmeira, António L.; Sniehotta, Falko F.; Horgan, Graham; Larsen, Sofus C.; Marques, Marta M.; Evans, Elizabeth H.Effective interventions and commercial programmes for weight loss (WL) are widely available, but most people regain weight. Few effective WL maintenance (WLM) solutions exist. The most promising evidence-based behaviour change techniques for WLM are self-monitoring, goal setting, action planning and control, building self-efficacy, and techniques that promote autonomous motivation (e.g., provide choice). Stress...

Scott, Sarah Ellen; Duarte, Cristiana; Encantado, Jorge; Evans, Elizabeth H; Harjumaa, Marja; Heitmann, Berit Lilienthal; Horgan, Graham WIntroduction Obesity and associated diseases place a severe burden on healthcare systems. Behavioural interventions for weight loss (WL) are successful in the short term but often result in weight regain over time. Self-regulation of eating and activity behaviours may significantly enhance weight loss maintenance (WLM) and may be effectively augmented by contextual behavioural approaches to emotion regulation. ...
