The aim of this study was to determine the effect of an 8-week empowerment intervention on sedentary behavior, physical activity, and psychological health in Korean older adults with hypertension. Using a quasi-experimental design, older adults participated in either an experimental group (n = 27) or control group (n = 21). The experimental group received an empowerment intervention including lifestyle modification education, group discussion, and exercise training for 8 weeks, and the control…

Predictors of Sedentary Behavior in Elderly Koreans With Hypertension
TLDR
To reduce sedentary behavior in this population, future interventions should improve empowerment and perceived health, increase the intensity of physical activity, and alleviate depression while considering the duration of disease.
Changes in Self-Reported Health and Psychosocial Outcomes in Older Adults Enrolled in Sedentary Behavior Intervention Study
TLDR
A sedentary behavior reduction intervention for older adults resulted in improvements for some psychosocial factors, although power was limited in this exploratory analysis.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of interventions to reduce sedentary behavior among older adults.
TLDR
Although SB interventions significantly reduced total sedentary time, the overall effect was small and Practitioners should employ diverse SB-specific strategies to encourage older adults to reduce time spent sedentary.
Pattern Analysis of Sedentary Behavior Change after a Walking Intervention.
TLDR
Significant decreases in sedentary behavior resulting from a physical activity intervention in older adults were accomplished through reductions in shorter bouts of SB and likely through a variety of small changes that differed between individual participants and sexes.

Feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an intervention to reduce older adults’ sedentary behavior
TLDR
This intervention was feasible to implement and evaluate, acceptable to older adults, and showed promise for reducing older adults’ SB.
Factors Influencing Sedentary Behaviour in Older Adults: An Ecological Approach
TLDR
It was clear from this analysis that sedentary time reduction strategies will need to consider the different domains in which older adults accumulate sedentaryTime, as these were identified as critical for enjoyment and motivation.
Acceptability of a sitting reduction intervention for older adults with obesity
TLDR
The technology-enhanced sedentary behavior reduction intervention was acceptable, easy to incorporate, and had a positive perceived health impact on older adults with obesity.

TLDR
The significant associations between the cognitive appraisal and motivation concepts extend previous research and add to the understanding of the complex factors that influence regular PA.

TLDR
A structured PA intervention improved the SPPB score and other measures of physical performance and may also offer benefit on more distal health outcomes, such as mobility disability.
Intervention centred on adolescents' physical activity and sedentary behaviour (ICAPS): concept and 6-month results
TLDR
After 6 months of intervention, ICAPS was associated with a significant improvement of activity patterns and psychological predictors, indicating a promising approach for modifying the long-term PA level of adolescents.

Sedentary behaviour, physical activity and a continuous metabolic syndrome risk score in adults
TLDR
The present results support inclusion of efforts to decrease sedentary behaviour in metabolic syndrome prevention strategies for women aged ⩾45 years, besides promotion of moderate to vigorous physical activity, since both behavioural changes might show additional effects.

Inverse association between physical inactivity and mental health in men and women.
TLDR
Among men and women in the ACLS, relative increases in maximal CR fitness and habitual physical activity are cross-sectionally associated with lower depressive symptomatology and greater emotional well-being.

TLDR
It is apparent from the current analysis that SPH plays an important role in PA levels of older adults with chronic disease and should be targeted in future interventions.
