A Prospective, Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of Different Types of Incentives in Increasing Physical Activity Behavior on the Vitality Health Promotion Programme
The aim of the study is to prospectively compare the effectiveness of diverse incentives on
physical activity behaviour, in a cohort of newly-enrolled, adult members of the Vitality
health promotion programme based in South Africa.
Newly enrolled adult members of the Discovery Health medical plan who have, themselves,
prospectively registered for the Vitality health promotion programme will be eligible for
the study, and will be invited to participate by Discovery Vitality. A final sample of 9000
adult members, who are recruited and have agreed to participate, will be randomly allocated
by Discovery Vitality (with replacement) to one of six study (incentive) groups (n=1500 per
group) and followed for six months.
