Our new paper on the feasibility and validity of #EMA to assess physical activity and sedentary behavior in a sample of largely African-American/Black, low-income older adults is published online @JMPBjournal.
Check out our infographic ⬇️⬇️⬇️ for a summary of the main findings
I’m so very glad I came to @UNCGKin to work with @jaclynpmaher. I highly recommend reaching out if you’re interested in the research topics!
Please retweet! I am recruiting PhD and MS students to join the Physical Activity and Lifetime Wellness Lab @UNCGKin in Fall 2022. Our lab uses ecological momentary assessment (#EMA) methods to better understand physical activity & sedentary behavior!

Recent #CDC data: >50% of ppl 18-29 have experienced symptoms of #anxiety & #depression disorders in the past 7 days from Jan-March 2021. #PhysicalActivity has been shown to be an effective treatment & can reduce risk of experiencing symptoms. Need help being #active? (1/2)

Ask your provider, DM me, or see: cdc.gov/physicalactivity/bas… for a starting point! It's okay to start slow by adding a #walk into your daily routine and building from there. (2/2)

Not to even mention that #physicalactivity can improve your mood in the short-term. Go for that walk and feel a little happier!😁
