Abstract
Optimal health coaching interventions are tailored to individuals' needs, preferences, motivations, barriers, timing, and readiness to change. Technology approaches are useful in both monitoring a user's adherence to their behavior change goals and also in providing just-in-time feedback and coaching messages. User models that incorporate dynamically varying behavior change variables with algorithms that trigger tailored messages provide a framework for making health interventions more effective. These principles are applied in the described system for assisting older adults in meeting their physical exercise goals with a tailored interactive video system with just-in-time feedback and encouragement.Entities:
