Brief Summary

AIMS: The project aims at investigating of the effects of three types of planning (individual planning, collaborative planning, and dyadic planning) on physical activity.The influence of three planning interventions are compared with an active control condition, including physical activity education. PARTICIPANTS: The effects of the interventions are evaluated among parent-child (aged 10-14) dyads, with a minimum of 50 dyads enrolled into the each arm of the trial (a total of 200 dyads). The interventions consist of six planning sessions. DESIGN: The dyads are randomly assigned to one of four experimental conditions. The assessment of the main and secondary outcomes is conducted at the baseline, at 1 week after the first intervention session, at post-intervention (after six intervention sessions are completed), and at 6-, and 12-month follow-ups. OUTCOMES: Physical activity constitutes the main outcome, whereas health-related quality of life (HRQOL), body mass index, as well as the self-regulatory strategy called the use of planning (individual, dyadic and collaborative) are secondary outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Physical activity

  Accelerometry: ActiGraph (the model: wGT3X-B)

  Change from the baseline physical activity at 8 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  Change from baseline HRQOL at 8 months

• Health-related quality of life (HRQOL)

  Change from baseline HRQOL at 8 months

• Physical activity behavior

  Baseline (before the intervention) to 1 week after the first face-to face intervention session); Baseline to 6-month follow-up

Other Outcomes (2)

• Habitual physical activity

  Change from baseline habitual physical activity at 8 months

• Habitual sedentary behavior

  Change from baseline habitual sedentary behavior at 8 months

Study Arms (4)

Individual Planning

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are filling in the planning forms, referring to their individual physical activity. Both members of the dyad form their own, interdependent plans. The following behavior change techniques (BCT) are included in the planning intervention protocol: action planning, barrier identification, prompting self-talk, relapse prevention/coping planning. Applications of all BCT included references to planning.

Behavioral: Individual Planning; Behavioral: Education

Dyadic Planning

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are filling in the planning forms jointly. Planning refers to physical activity of only one person in the dyad, the child. The parent is actively participating in forming plans by the child. The following BCT are included in the planning intervention protocol: action planning, barrier identification, prompting self-talk, relapse prevention/coping planning. Applications of all BCT included references to planning.

Behavioral: Dyadic Planning; Behavioral: Education

Collaborative Planning

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants are filling in the planning forms jointly. Planning refers to physical activity of both persons in the dyad (child and parent). Physical activity may be performed jointly by both persons in the dyad. The following BCT are included in the planning intervention protocol: action planning, barrier identification, prompting self-talk, relapse prevention/coping planning. Applications of all BCT included references to planning.

Behavioral: Collaborative Planning; Behavioral: Education

Education

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The education group received extended physical activity and healthy nutrition education program. The education includes: (1) the guidelines for physical activity and healthy nutrition, tailored to age and health status of the participant, (2) the examples of exercises and their metabolic equivalent; (3) information about healthy body mass and body composition.

Interventions

Individual Planning BEHAVIORAL

CONTENT: The planning materials and forms have sections: (a) information on the importance of planning, including examples of how planning works and what it affects, (b) instructions of what should be included in a good plan (the when, where, and how components), (c) formulating action and coping plans. Action plans (referring to when, when, and how the individual will act) as well as coping plans (referring to how to overcome potential difficulties, risky situations or temptations to not engage in physical activity). Each participant forms their plans individually, without consulting the dyadic partner, but discussing the plans with the experimenter.

Dyadic Planning BEHAVIORAL

CONTENT: The planning materials and forms have sections: (a) information on the importance of planning, including examples of how planning works and what it affects, (b) instructions of what should be included in a good plan (the when, where, and how components), (c) formulating action and coping plans. Action plans (referring to when, when, and how the individual will act) as well as coping plans (referring to how to overcome potential difficulties, risky situations or temptations to not engage in physical activity). Both partners in the dyad jointly form one plan. This jointly developed plan is discussed with the experimenter. The plan focuses on physical activity of only one person in the dyad: the child (parent-child dyads).

Both partners in the dyad jointly form one plan. This jointly developed plan is discussed with the experimenter. The plan focuses on physical activity of both persons within the dyad (parent and child) and include some plans for joint physical activity.

Collaborative Planning

Education BEHAVIORAL

CONTENT: The education materials address physical activity and healthy nutrition guidelines for age groups. Participants receive a set of educational materials about types of physical activity (PA), PA intensity, exercise calorie expenditure, strength and endurance training, stretching, and general nutrition guidelines in terms of meal composition, and nutrients, meal frequency. The materials exclude any planning statements. The education is delivered by the experimenter to a parent-child dyad and discusses individual guidelines for both dyadic partners.
