The primary research purpose of this study will be to determine the potential effectiveness of the application of gamified elements on participants’ daily lives to increase their daily step count (DSC) over the study period.

Secondary research purposes include:
1) determine how increasing participants’ DSC will affect their health indicators, mental health, and sleep behavior & quality,
2) comparing the effectiveness of various gamified elements in increasing DSC,
3) comparing the effectiveness of combined gamified elements vs. individual gamified elements in increasing participants’ DSC, and
4) comparing the effectiveness of implicit gamification vs. explicit gamification in increasing the participants’ DSC.
