Activity Pacing for Fatigue Management

This project will focus on perceived fatigue as a barrier to physical activity participation and will explore if and how activity pacing, fatigue management, and self-regulation strategies can help to overcome this barrier in adults with chronic conditions who experience fatigue symptoms. The main aims are: 1. To demonstrate the differences and similarities on activity pacing, perceived fatigue, self-regulation, physical activity, and health-related quality of life in adults who experience fatigue by comparing individuals who have been through an activity pacing program or not. 2. To explore thoughts, experiences, needs, and perspectives on activity pacing of adults with fatigue and health professionals as well as any ideas for future development of an optimal intervention. Participants will be invited to complete questionnaires on several variables (activity pacing, physical activity, fatigue, health-related quality of life, and self-regulation of physical activity). In addition, they will be invited to wear an Actigraph for 7 full days and they will also be invited to a focus group interview.
