The influence of vicarious experience provided through mobile technology on self-efficacy when learning new tasks

作者:

Highlights:

• We investigate tailoring in technology-supported physical activity interventions.

• These types of intervention rarely tailor coaching based on constructs from behavioral science.

• High self-efficacy is of major importance for optimal effectiveness.

• Vicarious feedback is a promising strategy for mobile behavior change interventions.
