About this study

Official title: Club Fit: Pilot Testing of a Physical Activity and Healthy Eating Intervention at a Boys & Girls Club After School Program

Background: Youth from low-income and minority families are disproportionately affected by obesity and its complications. This study presented pilot work to develop and implement a multi-component physical activity and healthy eating intervention at a Boys \& Girls Club (BGC) after school program.

Methods: Using a community-based participatory approach, BGC staff and academic researchers developed intervention components informed by formative studies and based on a social ecological theory framework. Components included healthy eating and physical activity policy implementation, staff training, a challenge/self-monitoring program for healthy behaviors, a peer-coaching program for healthy behaviors, and a social marketing campaign. Preliminary intervention efficacy was assessed through a single group, pre-post study design with measured collected at baseline and 6 months.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in self-efficacy

    Self-efficacy was assessed with a survey adapted from instruments developed for the Patient-centered Assessment and Counseling for Exercise plus Nutrition program for low-income, ethnically diverse adolescents. It was scored on a 10-point Likert scale from 1 (not at all confident) to 10 (extremely confident).

    Measured: baseline, 6 months

  2. Change in motivation

    Motivation for physical activity was scored on a 10-point Likert scale from 1 (not at all motivated) to 10 (extremely motivated).

    Measured: baseline, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in body mass index

    For body mass index (BMI), weight was measured to the nearest 0.1 kg using a single scale. Height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm using a stadiometer. BMI was calculated as weight (kg)/height squared (m2).

    Measured: baseline, 6 months

  2. Change in physical activity

    The Kinetic Activity Monitor accelerometer was used for objective physical activity assessment. Participants were asked to wear the accelerometer at their waist during waking hours for 10 consecutive days. The accelerometer was activated and data collected without providing feedback to participants. A valid assessment required 5 days of wear for at least 10 hours a day. Data output included sedentary time and time spent performing mild, moderate, and vigorous physical activities.

    Measured: baseline, 6 months

  3. Change in dietary quality

    Dietary assessment was performed with the Beverage and Snack Questionnaire 2. The instrument was adapted to include nine items (on a 7-point Likert scale) that addressed consumption of fruits, vegetables, and sugar sweetened beverages. The Likert scale ranged from "never or less than 1 per week" to "4+ per day." The greater number of fruits and vegetables, and fewer number of sugar sweetened beverages were considered a positive change in dietary quality.

    Measured: baseline, 6 months
