Variables: age cancer-type weight cancer coping style gender waist circumference race/ethnicity current health prac'ces (minutes of PA, intake of F&Vs, calories, dietary fat and its sources), barriers, readiness and selfefficacy to pursue lifestyle change and adherence to self-monitoring. Recruitment via referral & cancer registries Excellent reach Why a Family-Based Interven'on? Behavioral change may be more auainable if address at mul'ple levels Survivors and family members likely to share: - gene'c risk factors - environmental risk factors Address primary and ter'ary preven'on simultaneously

5 Healthy Moves: Raonale Theorecal Model Aims The rela'onship between survivors and spouses may be very different than mothers and daughters Spouses tend to live in the same household poten'al for enhanced social support Couples-Based print + counseling Interpersonal strategies - communal coping - joint problem - solving - communication Intrapersonal strategies - goal setting - self - monitoring - portion control Survivor Only print + counseling Intrapersonal strategies - goal setting - self - monitoring - portion control Spouse Factors - self - efficacy - social support Survivor Factors - self - efficacy - social support Spouse Outcomes - diet quality - physical activity - body weight Survivor Outcomes - diet quality - physical activity - body weight Secondary Outcomes - physical functioning - body composition - QOL Secondary Outcomes - physical functioning - body composition - QOL Primary Aims:. Modify an exis'ng mul'-behavior lifestyle interven'on for couples. 2. Pilot test the couples-based interven'on compared to a survivor only interven'on to explore feasibility and es'mate the effects on primary outcomes of survivor DQ and PA to provide effect sizes for a larger trial. Secondary Aims:. Explore the effects on survivors physical func'oning, body composi'on, QOL, and marital quality, as well as interven'on mediators including social support and self-efficacy. 2. Explore the effects on the interven'ons on spouse health behaviors, physical func'oning, body composi'on, QOL, and marital quality, as well as interven'on mediators.

7 Healthy Moves: Conclusions The pilot study met feasibility benchmarks. Results demonstrate efficacy for survivors. High concordance in spousal health behaviors but no changes in spouses when only the survivor is targeted. Results highlight the necessity for including the spouse, which may be important for longterm behavior change. Overall: Conclusions Tailored interven'ons hold par'cular promise in promo'ng lifestyle change Dyad-based interven'ons also hold par'cular promise and benefit both survivor and partner Uptake, adherence and effect may depend upon the composi'on of the dyad selec'on of the partner may be best ler to the survivor Thank-you!
