This study tests a web-based chronic disease risk reduction lifestyle medicine intervention among rural adults.
The impact of chronic diseases has important implications for public health presently and in the future. The prevalence of chronic diseases is expected to rise with subsequent increases in mortality, morbidity, and health care costs. This proposed pilot project involves testing an adapted evidence-based lifestyle medicine (health promotion and disease risk reduction) curriculum using a web-based delivery format and determine its impact and efficacy among rural participants. The project is expected to contribute to improved human health by promoting healthy behaviors that reduce the development, progression, and exacerbation of chronic diseases.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Produce and Vegetable Consumption from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Theory of Planned Behavior 5-a-day Questionnaire: The 12-item scale for measuring produce consumption had adequate internal reliability for attitudes (Cronbach"s a = .79), norms (a = .77), self-efficacy (a = .81), and intentions (a = .74) when tested among a diverse population. The range of possible scores for each of the subscales for this instrument varied for attitudes (3 to 28), norms and self-efficacy (3 to 21), and intentions (1 to 14). Higher scores indicate greater compliance with dietary recommendations. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Sleep from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI): Sleep habits, Perceptions of sleep quality, quantity, and difficulties falling and staying asleep. 9-item Likert scale had good internal reliability (α = .83). Higher scores indicate better sleep quality. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |

| Change in Stress from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Perceived Stress Scale: A 10-item, 5-point Likert scale, that had excellent internal consistency (α = 0.84-0.86). The items include perceptions of stress. Higher scores indicate greater perceptions of stress. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Social Support from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Interpersonal Support Evaluation List-12 (ISEL-12): Perceived belonging, tangible, and appraisal support. 12-item Likert scale had excellent reliability (α = .90). Higher scores indicate greater social support. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Social Support to Eat Better and Move More from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Social Support to Eat Better and Move More: Support from friends; Overall (α = 0.96); Subscales [informational (α = 0.97), emotional (α = 0.96), and encouragement (α = 0.97)]. Higher scores indicate greater social support to eat better and move more. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Well-being from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Well-being Scale: Measures well-being (α = 0.92) overall, and five subscales (α = 0.79 - 0.85). Higher scores indicate greater perceptions of personal well-being. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Dietary Fat Intake from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Theory of Planned Behavior Dietary Fat Measure: The 14-item instrument containing Likert-type subscales used to ascertain dietary fat attitudes (a = .95), norms (a = .92), self-efficacy (a = .86), and intentions (a = .94) was considered highly reliable. The range of potential scores included 2 items for attitudes (2 to 14), 4 items for norms (4 to 28), 5 items for self-efficacy (5 to 35), and 3 items for intentions (3 to 21). Higher scores indicate greater compliance with following dietary fat recommendations. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Exercise from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Theory of Planned Behavior Exercise Questionnaire: 10-item scale used to measure exercise evidenced good reliability for attitude (α = .84), norms (α = .83), and self-efficacy. (α = .79). Higher scores indicate greater indications of exercise determinants. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
| Change in Health Habits and Knowledge from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | Intervention-specific; Diet, exercise, confidence, smoking, alcohol; knowledge of CVD & risk factors. Both scales (Health Habits and Health Knowledge) range from 0-100. Higher scores indicate greater knowledge about health information and performance of those behaviors. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention.. |
| Change in Physical Activity from Baseline to Post-intervention and 4 weeks post-intervention | International Physical Activity Quesionnaire (IPAQ): Measures physical activities and exercise intensity and time levels, work-related physical activity, transportation-related, etc. (α = .80). Higher scores indicate greater levels of physical activity. | Baseline, Post-intervention (six weeks from baseline), 4 weeks post-intervention (10 weeks from baseline), and six months post-intervention. |
