Behavioral Self-Monitoring + Motivational Interviewing

Participants (n=20) will wear a iWatch to continuously measure their objective sleep-wake activity. The iWatch data sync to the new myRhythmWatch app, where participants will monitor their behavioral rhythm. Participants will also interact with a 'health coach' about their recorded behaviors weekly. This health coach will use motivational interviewing to enhance older adult caregivers' confidence and intrinsic motivation to engage in regular self-care.
