The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Take Control intervention to improve physical activity rates. A quasi-experimental, non-equivalent comparison group research design was used. A standard educational intervention, Just Move, was implemented to act as a comparison group for the Take Control intervention. The Take Control intervention was based on the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). Specifically the constructs of self-regulation, self-efficacy and social support were targeted. Participants in the Take Control intervention received at their home, a series of self-guided worksheets that were tailored to address a specific SCT construct. Both programs were a six-week, home-based intervention that was designed to increase days of moderate and vigorous activity among adults. Three evaluation techniques were utilized. The first evaluation technique, behavioral impact evaluation, analyses the impact the intervention had on days of physical activity. The second evaluation technique, construct validation of the treatment, links intervention components to changes in the targeted SCT constructs. The third evaluation technique, process evaluation, measures if the intervention was implemented as intended. The study revealed that both groups significantly improved days of physical activity from pretest to posttest. Of the three SCT constructs targeted, only self-regulation increased from pretest to posttest. This study adds to the body of literature. It one of the few home-based studies that implements theoretical constructs. This study also supports that a minimal contact home-based intervention can impact days of physical activity as well as self-regulation skills.
