The Engaged4Life Study: Enhancing the Health-Promoting Effects of Older Adults' Activity Portfolios

This study designs and tests a multi-component intervention- Engaged4Life- designed to enhance physical activity (PA), cognitive activity (CA), social interaction (SI) and personal meaning (PM) in low-engaged community-dwelling older adults' everyday life activities through: 1) technology-assisted self-monitoring of PA, CA, SI, and PM activity engagement, 2) psycho-education + goal setting (via a 3-hour workshop), and 3) one-on-one peer mentoring (via phone 2X/week for 3 weeks) to support goal implementation. 15 adults age 65 or older will be randomized to receive all 3 intervention components and 15 to receive only the technology-assisted self-monitoring component.
