Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to examine some aspects of health in the special youth care. In this case it concerns the mental, social and physical and sporting health of the young people in the community institution De Kempen, Campus de Hutten. To examine these aspects of health, questionnaires will be used and participants will be asked to wear a SenseWear bracelet during their PE lessons. It is a pilot study that explores and tests the way in which certain things are best investigated in this setting. It examines how the practical side of such research should be carried out. It will also be investigated which obstacles, weaknesses and errors can be encountered when conducting such an investigation.

Detailed Description

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

This research is a quantitative cross-sectional study. Questionnaires will be taken from participants to measure mental, social and physical health. In addition, Sensewear bracelets will be used during the PE lessons of the participants to collect data (MET's and number of steps).

Three short questionnaires will be taken from the boys which measure the mental, social and physical health. Completing these questionnaires will take no longer than 10 minutes in total. The questionnaires will be filled in once by each participating individual at the start of the PE lesson.

During the PE class, the participants will receive a Sensewear bracelet in which the number of METs and the number of steps during the effort are measured. A distinction will also be made between the various sports during the PE lesson. Each participant will have to wear the Sensewear bracelet once during a single PE lesson.

It is an open research in which the participants are fully informed. The participants can voluntarily choose whether or not to participate in the study. The quantitative data collected from the questionnaires and Sensewear bracelets will then be used for de-finitive interpretation and decision making.
