Abstract
Mobile phone technology has been progressively employed in persuasive technology interventions design to promote physical activity (PA) and discourage sedentary behavior (SB). Because of the ubiquitous nature and seamless integration of mobile phones into the user’s daily lives, mobile phone-based persuasive technologies (PTs) have the potential to influence and change a user’s behavior or attitude continuously. This paper provides a systematic review of 15 years of research (80 papers) focusing on the effectiveness of mobile phone-based PT in promoting PA and reducing SB. Specifically, this review aims to: (1) assess the effectiveness of mobile phone-based PT in persuading users to be more physically active and less sedentary, (2) highlight research trends in this area including other technology platforms implemented along with mobile phone-based PT, (3) reveal some strengths and weaknesses of existing mobile phone interventions in PA and SB domains, and (4) provide recommendations to inform future research in this area.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
