- Abstract
This study post-tested the usability and effectiveness of a self-management intervention on two unique sample groups. The first group included three hundred forty-three (N=343) university students in a required Fitness/Wellness class at large University in the Midwest. The second group included one hundred thirty-seven (N= 137) employees of business, medical, and/or governmental organizations. A majority of participants (generally >90%) indicated the intervention, which was autonomy and competency supportive, was user-friendly, took very little time to complete (less than 10 minutes daily), helped them try to make positive changes, and(>97%) recommended this type of intervention for others.
