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 determine the effect of the developed program on screen usage time and physical activity for pre-school children.

Detailed Description

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

The "Screen-to-Move-Program" (STEP), developed on the basis of Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), is aimed to reduce screen usage time and increase physical activity in pre-school children. In this study, it was aimed to increase children's physical activity and decrease screen usage times with a 6 session intervention program based on SCT, which includes children and parents. The effectiveness of the program will be evaluated with the pre-test, post-test and 3rd month follow-up test.

Study Groups

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

Intervention Group

It is planned as 6 sessions, 1 session per week for children and parents. The program will be introduced to children and parents under the call with "Screen-to-Move-Program (STEP)". The symbol of the program has been created and this symbol will be hung on the classroom door. Sessions for children include story, picture, video demonstration and active playing activities. A more clear, simple and understandable language will be used for children, and reinforcements will be used. For parents; There will be 6 training sessions in the form of presentations. At the same time as the children's activities, information notes will be sent to the parents outlining the expectations. Before the intervention, after the intervention and in the 3rd month, children's screen use time, daily physical activity time, sleep time, parents' knowledge, behavior, attitude and self-efficacy about their children's screen use time will be evaluated.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Screen-to-Move-Program (STEP)

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

It is planned as 6 sessions, 1 session per week for children and parents. The program will be introduced to children and parents under the call with "Screen-to-Move-Program (STEP)".

Control Group

Screen use time, daily physical activity time, sleep time, parents' knowledge, behavior, attitude and self-efficacy about children's screen use time will be evaluated simultaneously from the control group with the intervention group. After the 3rd month follow-up test, the STEP will be applied to the children and parents in the control group.
