Abstract
The current paper describes the development of a theory-informed interactive animation and which aims to increase levels of physical activity in young people with asthma. The project adopts a multi-disciplinary theoretical perspective, applying knowledge from applied health research, human centred design and psychology in order to best approach and develop a meaningful and effective health intervention.
