Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Resource Information Program for Parents on Lifestyle and Education (NCT NCT02330588)

NCT ID: NCT02330588

Last Updated: 2017-04-17

Results Overview

Parents' interest was determined by the proportion (indicated as a percentage) of parents that (i) enrolled among those approached to participate, (ii) 'opted in' to receive the tailored email report, and (iii) self-selected resources from the SBIRT; the latter two were recorded by back-end programming of the SBIRT.

Participant Flow

A total of 226 participants were recruited from July to October 2015 in a pediatric primary care clinic (Figure 1; http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ijpo.12200/abstract).

Measure
Eat It (Injunctive Feedback)
Parents are presented with two questions about portion size and sugar-sweetened beverages; answers are contrasted with injunctive feedback (i.e., Canadian guidelines).
Eat It (Normative Feedback)
Parents are presented with two questions about portion size and sugar-sweetened beverages; answers are contrasted with normative feedback (i.e., referent data from Canadian children).
Move It (Injunctive Feedback)
Parents are presented with two questions about screen time and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA); answers are contrasted with injunctive feedback (i.e., Canadian guidelines).
Move It (Normative Feedback)
Parents are presented with two questions about screen time and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA); answers are contrasted with normative feedback (i.e., referent data from Canadian children).
eHealth Control
Parents randomly assigned to the control arm will include information on children's lifestyle behaviors only (no intervention questions).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: One-month follow-up

Population: Participants who completed one-month follow-up.

Parents' uptake was determined by parents' use (actual and self-reported) of obesity prevention resources (i.e., the proportion \[reported in percentage\] that actually or self-reported using resources out of the total number of participants that participated in follow-up), and the proportion (reported in percentage) of parents that reported discussing children's weight with their pediatrician immediately following the SBIRT.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measured at baseline

A brief, eight-item Likert scale questionnaire with established face validity has been adopted from Campbell et al. (2011) and will assess parents' concern for and motivation to support their child's lifestyle behaviors. Concern and motivation to change were measured on a 5-point Likert scale ('strongly disagree' \[0\] to 'strongly agree' \[4\]); for example, "I am ready to change my child's lifestyle behaviors", a 0 would indicate that participants strongly disagree with this statement.
