Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC),

    is a 20-item self-report depression inventory with possible scores ranging from 0 to 60. Each response to an item is scored as follows: 0 = "Not At All" 1 = "A Little" 2 = "Some" 3 = "A Lot" However, items 4, 8, 12, and 16 are phrased positively, and thus are scored in the opposite order: 3 = "Not At All" 2 = "A Little" 1 = "Some" 0 = "A Lot" Higher CES-DC scores indicate increasing levels of depression.

    First at baseline and then after 12 weeks of the exercise program

Study Arms (3)

cognitive therapy with regular exercise

EXPERIMENTAL

In the form of regular exercise where each participant perform exercise training approximately 60-min 3 times per week for 12 weeks, each session includes a combination of moderate intensity (\~63% maximum heart rate; HRmax) aerobic (\~25 min) and resistance (\~25 min) activities, with additional time for warm-up (5 min; 10% HRmax) and cool down (5 min).

Behavioral: Cognitive-Behavioral TherapyOther: Exercise Training

cognitive therapy with irregular exercise

EXPERIMENTAL

in form of irregular exercise training approximately 60-min once a week for 12 weeks, each session include a combination of moderate intensity (\~63% maximum heart rate; HRmax) aerobic (\~25 min) and resistance (\~25 min) activities, with additional time for warm-up (5 min; 10% HRmax) and cool down (5 min).
