ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Sedentary behaviour is a health risk factor independent of physical activity. Interventions that aim to reduce sitting at the workplace are particularly important as office workers spend a large proportion of their working hours sitting. This systematic review examines whether these interventions (SB or PA interventions during work time) reduce sitting time among office workers and which variables moderate intervention effects.METHODS:
A systematic literature search was conducted from April to May 2016 in the following databases PubMed, PsycINFO and SPORTDiscus. In total, we identified 17 studies that assessed the time spent in sedentary behaviour at the office workplace. To summarize the study results, we applied a best-evidence synthesis. Additionally, we evaluated potential moderators, such as intervention strategies.RESULTS:
Multi-component interventions and sit-stand workstations were most promising sedentary reduction interventions. The analysis of moderators highlighted that the proportion of positive intervention effects was higher in interventions based on the strategies "environmental restructuring", "adding objects to the environment" and "instructions on how to carry out the behaviour". Furthermore, interventions focusing on sedentary behaviour only and studies using objective measurement tools showed more often positive interventions effects.CONCLUSIONS:
There are many promising interventions to reduce sitting time at the office workplace. However, there is insufficient evidence if the effects of these interventions are sustainable in the long term. Moreover, the considerable heterogeneity of included studies limits the validity of our findings. Future intervention studies should build on a theoretical planning approach and use subjective as well as objective evaluation measures.
