| Description | The study was conducted over a period of eight weeks during March and April 2007. This report presents findings from the literature review and scoping study and also includes three case studies which provide more in-depth detail about specific pedometer-based interventions within the UK. It is anticipated that findings from this report will be used to inform the development of some preliminary guidance for schools on the use of pedometers to promote physical activity, and particularly walking, among school-aged children. |
