Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Child Obesity Program

Firstly, overweight and obese students will be determined by measuring their height and weight. While selecting children for the experimental group, random numbers table will be used. As a result of statistical analysis, 33 students will be selected to the Experiment group. Child Obesity Program (COP) will be applied to students in the experimental group for 10 weeks. Before the program is implemented, children's height, weight, subcutaneous adipose tissue measurements will be made. The pedometer wristband will be distributed.

Pretest: BMI, weight average, subcutaneous adipose tissue measurement and application of scales

* \- Children's Dietary Self- Efficacy Scale-CDSS
* \- Food Behavior Scale
* \- Child Heart Health Development Attitude Scale (exercise, stress, nutrition subscales)
* -Daily Food Consumption Form
* -Drink Consumption Form
* Health Perception Form

Follow-ups will be performed in the 6th and 9th months after the intervention
