Investigating if short message service (SMS) texting can affect exercise participation in older adults from an upper-middle-income country is important considering the proliferation of mobile phones in developing regions and the increased interest of older adults in using mobile phones. | Source Title: | Journal of Medical Internet Research | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/137228 | ISSN: | 14394456 | DOI: | 10.2196/jmir.5235 | Rights: | Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International |
