Self-nudging to foster employee physical activity while working from home

This project investigates how employees can increase their own health behaviors (increase physical activity, reduce sitting) and, indirectly, their well-being and performance, while working from home during the corona crisis. We propose that individuals may develop self-initiated nudges that facilitate their daily choice to be physically active. We evaluate the effect of a 4-week self-nudging intervention in which employees learn to develop their own nudges (vs. health information and no information control group) on physical activity, well-being, and work performance.
