Frequently Asked Questions (18)
Q2. What can be done to help PLWHA of low SES to be more physically active?
Including constructs, such as selfefficacy, participant exercise preferences and social support, can help PLWHA of low SES to adopt regular physical activity, and can serve as adjunct therapy for the management of HIV and AIDS.
Q3. What is the effect of the intervention on physical activity?
increased perceived enjoyment of physical activity may result in increased self-efficacy, which may lead to a greater prospect of increasing physical activity behaviour (Lewis et al., 2016).
Q4. What is the effect of exercise on the body?
Aerobic and strength training improve the profile of lymphocytes (O’Brien, Nixon, Glazier, & Tynan, 2004), body composition, muscle strength and quality of life (Spence, Galantino, Mossberg, & Zimmerman, 1990).
Q5. What is the main reason why a study was conducted?
In Africa, Murenzi (2011) reported that PLWHA, particularly women (Smit et al., 2006), engage in insufficient PA, which may be related to low socioeconomic status (SES) (Economic and Social Research Council, 2014).
Q6. What was the purpose of the study?
An information session and information sheets were used to inform participants about the study, and participant written informed consent was obtained.
Q7. What is the effect of the intervention on the health of the participants?
educating participants on where to find safe environments to walk very likely assisted them to be more physically active (Tuso, 2015).
Q8. What was the age of the participants?
Participants needed to be between 18 and 65 years, HIV positive, as confirmed through medical records, and cleared on the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q).
Q9. What was the use of a stadiometer?
Height was measured with a stadiometer, and body weight using a calibrated weight scale with participants wearing minimal clothing.
Q10. What was the PA intervention group receiving?
The PA intervention group received logbooks for recording daily PA, and a PA manual with information on home-based exercise activities, the benefits and barriers to PA, and strategies for improving exercise self-efficacy.
Q11. What is the effect of physical activity on the health of a person with HIV?
Amongst people living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA), physical activity (PA) is associated with improvements in mental and physical well-being (Fillipas, Cicuttini, Holland, & Cherry, 2013; MacArthur, Levine, & Birk, 1993; Neidig, Smith, & Brashers, 2003).
Q12. What was the purpose of this study?
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a six week contextualised intervention aimed at increasing physical activity and self-efficacy for physical activity among HIV positive women of low SES.
Q13. What were the main findings of the study?
Similar to this study, Webel and colleagues included PA self-monitoring, goal-setting, inclusion of physical activity into activities of daily living, social support and strategies for overcoming barriers to engaging in physical activity, such as the effective use of personal time.
Q14. What was the mean age of the participants?
The mean (±SD) age of the participants was 37.57 (8.64) years, height was 1.61 (0.06) m, weight was 84.52 (22.48) kg, and BMI was 32.21 (7.89) kg.m−2.
Q15. What were the results of the study?
Compared to standard care, participants in the physical activity intervention, informed by SCT and TTM, had significant increases in total moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, total weekly steps and self-efficacy for physical activity.
Q16. How many minutes of physical activity did the authors increase?
Moore, Hanson, and Salata (2013) reported that participants increased their physical activity by 300 MET-minutes per week compared to the standard care group.
Q17. What are the theories used in the study?
Theories assist the researcher to identify the most effective behaviour change techniques (Glanz, Burke, & Rimer, 2011) and form the base for the development of evidence-based interventions (Sparling et al., 2000).
Q18. What was the corresponding data for SOC?
http://repository.uwc.ac.za4http://repository.uwc.ac.za5The results for SOC showed two participants in the precontemplative stage, 11 in the contemplative stage, four in the preparatory stage and one in the action stage.
