Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The coronavirus disease pandemic has led to college students spending more time at home. "Stay-at-home exercise" videos to eliminate inactivity are now available on various digital plat-forms; however, it is unclear whether these videos have led to behavioral changes among college students. This study aimed to investigate whether "stay-at-home exercises" improved physical activity (PA) among college students.

Results

We found that only distributing and encouraging the viewing of the stay-at-home exercise videos neither resulted in college students exercising nor increased their PA, but that it significantly improved their mental health. In other words, simply distributing exercise videos on a digital platform did not increase activity additional efforts should be made to encourage exercise.

Baseline Characteristics

The specific inclusion criteria for undergraduate students participating in this study were as follows (1) students who were at least 20 years old and enrolled in an undergraduate program (2) the ability to use a computer or smartphone with an internet connection. In contrast, the exclusion criteria were as follows (1) students with no device to view the stay-at-home exercise videos; (2) students incapable of completing all questionnaires.

Participant flow

This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Participants were recruited online and first gave their consent to the study via a Google form. Participants were then randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group by research staff before baseline measurements were completed (single-blind method). Randomization was performed by a computer-generated sequence with an assignment ratio of 1:1. After randomization, participants who completed the baseline questionnaire were granted access to either assigned program; after the 8-week intervention period, participants were emailed to complete a post-intervention questionnaire. Before the study, all participants provided informed consent on the website that was approved by the Epidemiology Ethics Committee of Hiroshima University (approval ID: E-2250).
