NCT02160847

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to help overweight or obese children to maintain or reduce their body mass index (BMI) through the home-based parent training program the investigators developed called DRIVE. The investigators hypothesize that children from families that receive the DRIVE program will show greater maintenance or improvement in their BMIs than families who do not receive DRIVE.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Child BMIz

    The child's body mass index z-scores (BMIz) was calculated by dividing the the child's weight in kilograms (measured by a digital scale) by the child's height in meters (measured by a stadiometer). These measurements were taken at each assessment point (pre-, mid-, and post-assessment).

    Week 0, Week 9, Week 19

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Parent BMIz

    Week 0, Week 9, Week 19

Study Arms (2)

DRIVE program

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the experimental group will receive the DRIVE curriculum (15 sessions) via weekly sessions conducted in their home by a DRIVE provider.

Behavioral: DRIVE Program

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

The parents in the control group will be mailed information on nutrition, physical activity, and parent-child interactions. Information on nutrition will include guidelines provided by the "MyPlate" website (http://www.choosemyplate.gov/preschoolers.html) in addition to information on proper nutrition and suggest levels of physical activity for preschoolers. Lastly, parents will be provided with the free publication, "Adventures in Parenting: How responding, Preventing, Monitoring, Mentoring, and Modeling Can Help You Be A Successful Parent," authored by National Institutes of Health, Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. Information covered in this document includes effective parenting strategies for children at specific ages.
