Movement dispersion provides an alternative approach to evaluating daily physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) patterns. Total movement dispersion calculates the spread of PA across the day, considering intensity, while pure movement dispersion calculates the spread as general movement regardless of intensity. Promoting bouts of PA across the day provides a way to infuse movement and create breaks in prolonged SB. Motivational interviewing is a behavioral counseling technique that focuses on motivation for healthy behavior changes. This study examined the influence of motivational interviewing on changes in pure and total movement dispersion among adolescents.</p><p><strong>Design and methods: </strong>This study conducted a secondary analysis of prior research employing motivational interviewing to increase bouts of MVPA and reduce prolonged SB (> 60 min).
