I had the privilege to join Olli Tikkanen of the Physical Activity (PA) Research Podcast. Olli and I had a lengthy conversation about behavior analysis applied to health and fitness and the role of technology.
Olli broke our conversation down into two parts.
Part I: Behavior analysis is such an important tool as… Dr Nicholas Green
In part I, I focused on providing Olli and his audience (who are not familiar with behavior analysis) the main applied behavioral approach to targeting fitness behavior change. I really enjoyed his questions as someone who is unfamiliar with operant learning and my approach to helping others.
Part II: What is the role of technology in behavior change? Dr Nicholas Green (Pt2)
In part II, we got into the weeds about technology and measurement. This episode is for you if you are looking specifics about measurement for health and fitness behavior change.
Other Notes
Full disclosure, Olli created the Fibion activity tracker and provided podcast sponsorship. I almost used Fibion for my some of my research, but it never came to fruition. I did not receive any royalties for being on his podcast.
