Addressing Place and People Micro Environments in Weight Loss Disparities
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Obese
In brief
The purpose of this study is to A) capture obesogenic cues that occur in daily life, and B) to deliver cue alerts. Investigators hypothesized that A) black women experience more cues, B) racial disparities in obesity are reduced in models that adjust for cues, and C) the priming arm will achieve a weight loss of 2kg or more. Investigators will explore whether racial disparities in weight loss differ between the groups receiving usual care or those receiving cues.
