Women's Health Initiative Strong and Healthy Study
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT02425345
Purpose
The WHISH trial applies state-of-the science behavioral principles and currently available
technologies to deliver a physical activity intervention without face-to-face contact to
~25,000 older U.S. women expected to consent. It includes the National Institute of Aging
(NIA) Go4Life® Exercise & Physical Activity materials 3 and WHISH developed targeted
materials based on Go4Life® to provide inspirational tips and recommendations about how to
achieve nationally recommended levels of PA and overcome barriers to exercise, with a means
for self-monitoring and setting personal goals. The intervention builds upon evidence-based
behavioral science principles and intervention components that have proven to be effective in
increasing PA in older women, with innovative adaptive approaches to tailoring the delivery
to meet individual (personal) needs.
