Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

1. Development of a method for parents of primary schoolchildren to teach parents parenting skills to obtain health gain in the family through videos and online feedback.
2. Effect- and procesevaluation of this methodology.
3. Development of an implementation guide together with VIGEZ as primary partner and in association with partner organisations on the field.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The current project aims to develop, test and implement online videos to teach effective parenting skills to parents of primary schoolchildren. This way we want to achieve health profit by stimulating PA en healthy diet, and reducing SB in children. The online videos, based on existing literature and focus group research, show parents via modeling how they can react in difficult parenting situations related to PA, SB and healthy diet. In the current study, these videos will first be tested in an effect and process evaluation study. 300 families with at least one primary schoolchild will be recruited and randomized into an intervention/control group. By using a survey at the pre-, post- and follow-up test, we will examine if parenting practices become more effective, if related parental self-efficacy enhances and if children perform more healthy behaviors after their parents watched the videos.

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The intervention group got acces to a private website for 4 weeks on which the online videos were placed (Week 1: fruit + water, week 2: vegetables + breakfast + supermarket, week 3: PA, week 4: SB)

After each week, parents received a link for an online process evaluation questionnaire in which we asked how many times they watched each video, if they discussed the videos with other people, if they found them interesting, boring…
