To examine perceptions and determinants of physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic among cancer survivors.
This purpose of this study is to examine perceptions and determinants of physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic in cancer survivors. To test our aim, we will recruit up to 1000 adults diagnosed with cancer within the last five years and ask them to complete an online questionnaire battery assessing their self-reported physical activity habits, psychosocial outcomes (e.g., depression, anxiety, self-efficacy, social support), and perceptions of physical activity engagement during the pandemic. A subsample of participants (n=50) will also be invited to participate in an interview to gain further insights into cancer survivors' physical activity experiences during COVID-19. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) will be used to analyze the quantitative survey data, and thematic analysis will be used to analyze the qualitative interview data.
