What do people with osteoarthritis think about using a digital behaviour change intervention to support physical activity? (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Berry, A., Walsh, N., & McCabe, C. (2022, October). What do people with osteoarthritis think about using a digital behaviour change intervention to support physical activity?. Poster presented at 9th International Society for Physical Activity and Health Congress, October 2022, Abu Dhabi, UWE,

Background Osteoarthritis (OA) affects 8.75 million people in the UK. Physical activity (PA) is recommended as a core treatment, yet nearly half of people with OA are inactive. Accessible and user-friendly interventions are needed to motivate people...
