Objective: Inactivity levels are increasing throughout the world. Regular participation in physical activity (PA) has multiple physical and mental health benefits. Males are underrepresented in PA intervention research despite having lower life expectancies both at birth and at age 60. Males may be less likely to volunteer for intervention research because their preferences for PA program characteristics differ from those of females. This research project was planned to investigate males' preferences for health-promoting PA interventions through use of qualitative and quantitative approaches.

Objective: Inactivity levels are increasing throughout the world. Regular participation in physical activity (PA) has multiple physical and mental health benefits. Males are underrepresented in PA intervention research despite having lower life expectancies both at birth and at age 60. Males may be less likely to volunteer for intervention research because their preferences for PA program characteristics differ from those of females. This research project was planned to investigate males' preferences for health-promoting PA interventions through use of qualitative and quantitative approaches.

Methods: An interpretative phenomenological approach (IPA) was used to analyze interviews with three older adult males who initiated regular participation in physical activity at middle age. Findings from the interviews helped inform the details provided on a factorial survey (FS) instrument created through a process developed by the researcher using the open access software program R. Survey respondents, including male non-administrative and contract university staff, were asked to rate each of 8 potential PA intervention programs that contained random combinations of several characteristics and to respond to one open-response item. Statistical results were analyzed using hierarchical linear regression (HLM); the open-response item was analyzed using descriptive qualitative analysis.

Results: Findings from the IPA research included the need for control over one's schedule and the role of mentors in encouraging PA participation. Statistical analysis of the FS responses suggested that type of activity and size of group were the more influential intervention characteristics. Findings from the open-response item emphasized a desire for appropriate goal-setting and motivational support.

Conclusions: The benefits of a mixed methods approach are supported by the results of this research in which qualitative aspects both informed and enhanced the quantitative portion. Factorial survey provides a cost effective means to investigate individuals' preferences for characteristics of an intervention, and R software can be used to efficiently create the instrument and data frame for statistical analysis. Further research is needed to clarify subjective definitions of health coaching. Taken as a whole, these results suggest that males may prefer that a peer or mentor figure provide coaching and motivation as opposed to an expert trainer or coach.
