Summary/Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to understand how the experience of fatigue affects physical activity participation in breast cancer survivors. This patient-centered approach will provide insight into the experience of cancer-related fatigue and how to maximize physical activity participation in this group of breast cancer survivors. This study will identify feasible and acceptable intervention strategies to implement in the future.

What does participation involve?

If you agree to participate, you will be asked to complete a series of online questionnaires about your health status and history, physical activity, experiences with fatigue, perceptions on physical activity, and interests and preferences for physical activity and behavioral interventions. The questionnaires will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. No lab visits will be required for participation. You will also have the option to participate in a 30 to 45-minute interview that will be held via teleconference or phone call based on your preference.
