BACKGROUND Many health conditions can be prevented, managed, or improved through behavioral interventions. Biological feedback, as a component of health behavior change interventions, is of particular interest given recent advances in wearable biosensing technology, digital health apps, and personalized health and wellness. Yet, there is a paucity of literature to guide the design and implementation of interventions that incorporate biological feedback to motivate health behavior change. OBJECTIVE The goal of this scoping review is to deeply explore the use of biological feedback as a component of health behavior change interventions that target adults. Objectives of the review include: (1) mapping the domains of research that incorporate biological feedback and (2) describing the operational characteristics of using biological feedback in the context of health behavior change. METHODS A comprehensive list of search terms was developed to capture studies from a wide range of domains. Studies to be included are randomized controlled trials targeting adults ≥18 years old that use biological feedback to change a health-related behavior, and are published as primary research articles, theses, or dissertations. The following electronic databases were searched: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase.com Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EBSCOhost PsycINFO, and ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global. The screening and data extraction process will be guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis and conducted by trained reviewers. RESULTS Database searches were completed in June 2021. A total of 50,459 unique records were returned after the removal of 48,634 duplicate records. The scoping review is planned for completion in 2022. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this will be the first scoping review to map the literature that uses biological feedback as a component of health behavior change interventions targeting adults. Findings will be used to develop a framework to guide the design and implementation of future health behavior change interventions that incorporate biological feedback.
