Perceived Health Outcomes On Using Wearable Fitness Trackers By Tracking And Self Managing Physical Activities

Abstract

The wearables industry is esteemed at US$18 million at present and is relied upon to arrive at an estimation of US$64 million by 2023. Lately, there has been expanding interest in arising advances and wearable sensors as self-checking apparatuses for advancing active work levels. The multiplication of wearable action trackers, just as their developing business accessibility, prominence, and far-reaching reception, presents an occasion to incorporate such advances into active work mediations. As needs be, relevant forerunners of grown-up's responsibility and discernment could be researched as a component of a more rational and thorough comprehension on wellness trackers impacts on wellbeing and prosperity. In this study non-probability sampling was used, to collect data by means of a structured questionnaire. Regression model was developed by analysing the data collected. Continuous Usage Intention is dependent on Perceived Product Satisfaction (PPST), Perceived Usefulness (PUT), Perceived Product Innovativeness (PPIT) and Perceived Enjoyment (PET) as per the relationship represented by the regression equation. In any case, neither one of the interventions was fruitful in altogether improving health outcomes or other wellbeing results. Other procedures or strategies may should be used notwithstanding wearable gadgets if the objective is to build health outcomes in this populace. The judgemental and convenience sampling methods could have been replaced by random sampling methods. Though the expertise of the researcher is involved, further research can follow random sampling methods. This can be viewed as a limitation of this study which along with the previously discussed points can form the scope for further research.
