ATOMIC Mobile App to Increase Physical Activity (PA) Levels in Survivors of Childhood Cancer

Development and Usability Testing of the ATOMIC Mobile App to Increase Physical Activity (PA) Levels in Children, Adolescent and Young Adults (AYA) Survivors of Childhood Cancer

Development and Usability Testing of the ATOMIC Mobile App to Increase Physical Activity (PA) Levels in Children, Adolescent and Young Adults (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer

The purpose of this program of research is to (1) determine the adaptations required of a pre-existing mobile fitness app to tailor it for childhood cancer survivors using a behavioral theory driven approach (Social Cognitive Theory) and (2) develop and evaluate the usability of the adapted mobile app using the Technology Assessment Model. The Technology Assessment Model (TAM), which theorizes the individuals' intentions to use information technology, is based on two driving factors: perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Future studies will evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of this app.
