Testing motivational and self-regulatory mechanisms of action on device-measure...
Encantado, Jorge; Marques, Marta M.; Gouveia, Maria João; Santos, Inês; Sánchez-Oliva, David; O'Driscoll, Ruairi; Turicchi, Jake; Larsen, Sofus C.Background: To date, few digital behavior change interventions for weight loss maintenance focusing on longterm physical activity promotion have used a sound intervention design grounded on a logic model underpinned by behavior change theories. The current study is a secondary analysis of the weight loss maintenance NoHoW trial and investigated putative mediators of device-measured long-term physical activity l...

Marques, Marta M.; Matos, Marcela; Mattila, Elina; Encantado, Jorge; Duarte, Cristiana; Teixeira, Pedro J.; Stubbs, R. James; Sniehotta, Falko F.Many weight loss programs show short-term effectiveness, but subsequent weight loss maintenance is difficult to achieve. Digital technologies offer a promising means of delivering behavior change approaches at low costs and on a wide scale. The Navigating to a Healthy Weight (NoHoW) project, which was funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program, aimed to develop, test, and evalua...

Palmeira, AL; M. Marques, Marta; SANCHEZ-OLIVA, DAVID; Encantado; Santos, Inês; Duarte, Cristiana; Matos, M.; Carneiro-Barrera, AlmudenaFunding Information: The NoHoW study has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme (grant agreement number 643309). Funding Information: The NoHoW trial is a three-centre (University of Leeds (UK), The Parker Institute (Denmark) and University of Lisbon (Portugal)) 2 × 2 factorial, randomized, single-blind, controlled trial testing the proof-of-concept of a digita...
Are motivational and self-regulation factors associated with 12 months’ weight ...
Palmeira, António L.; Marques, Marta M.; Sánchez-Oliva, David; Encantado, Jorge; Santos, Inês; Duarte, Cristiana; Matos, MarcelaPurpose: Preventing weight regain can only be achieved by sustained changes in energy balance-related behaviors that are associated with weight, such as diet and physical activity. Changes in motivation and self-regulatory skills can support long-term behavioral changes in the context of weight loss maintenance. We propose that experiencing a supportive climate care is associated with enhanced satisfaction of b...

Predictors of physical activity promotion in clinical practice: a cross-section...
Silva, Catarina Santos; Mendes, Romeu; Godinho, Cristina; Monteiro-Pereira, Ana; Pimenta-Ribeiro, Jaime; Martins, Helena Silva; Brito, JoãoBackground: Physical activity is a major determinant of physical and mental health. International recommendations identify health professionals as pivotal agents to tackle physical inactivity. This study sought to characterize medical doctors’ clinical practices concerning the promotion of patients’ physical activity, while also exploring potential predictors of the frequency and content of these practices, inc...
Systematic Review of Psychological and Behavioral Correlates of Recreational Ru...
Pereira, Hugo Vieira; Palmeira, A.L.; Encantado, Jorge; Marques, Marta M.; Santos, Inês; Carraça, Eliana V.; Teixeira, Pedro J.Introduction: The aim of this review was to systematically synthesize the published literature describing the psychological and behavioral correlates of recreational running in adults, defined as running for leisure, with or without a competitive component. Methods: Quantitative research published in peer-reviewed journals until January 2021 were included. Studies were identified through MEDLINE, PsycINFO, SPOR...
Development and cross-cultural validation of the Goal Content for Weight Mainte...
Encantado, Jorge; Marques, Marta M.; Palmeira, António L.; Sebire, Simon J; Teixeira, Pedro J.; Stubbs, R James; Heitmann, Berit LilienthalLong-term weight management requires sustained engagement with energy-balance-related behaviours. According to self-determination theory, behaviour goals can support or undermine motivation depending on the quality of their content (i.e., extrinsic and intrinsic motivation). This study aimed to develop and validate the goal content for weight loss maintenance scale (GCWMS).
