What Are the Predictors of Self-Reported Change in Physical Activity in Older Adults with Knee or Hip Osteoarthritis?

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAlthough physical activity (PA) has been shown to be beneficial in older adults with osteoarthritis (OA), most show low levels of PA. This study evaluated if self-efficacy, attitude, social norm, and coping styles predicted change in PA in older adults with OA in the knee and/or hip.
methodsProspective study following 105 participants in a self-management intervention with baseline, post-test (6 weeks), and follow-up (6 months). Univariate associations and multivariate regression with self-reported change in PA as the dependent variable were measured. Potential predictors in the model: demographic, illness-related, and behavioral variables (attitude, self-efficacy, social norm, and intention), coping style, and pain coping.
resultsForty-eight percent of participants reported increased PA at 6 weeks and 37% at 6 months which corresponded with registered PA levels. At 6 weeks, use of the pain coping style "resting," intention, and participation in the intervention was univariately and multivariately, positively associated with more self-reported change, whereas being single and less use of the pain coping style "distraction" predicted less change. Higher pain severity only predicted less change multivariately. At 6 months, univariate associations for age, general coping style "seeking support," and participation in the intervention were found; higher age was associated multivariately with less self-reported change.
conclusionAt short term, self-reported change of PA was predicted by the behavioral factors intention and several pain coping styles. Together with other predictors of self-reported change (pain severity, higher age, being single), these could be addressed in future interventions for enhancing PA in older adults with OA.
