摘要
饮食不健康和体育活动有限的儿童容易受到不良健康影响,如肥胖。这项试点干预研究考察了健康教育项目Get charm的直接影响,该项目采用短期激励计划作为激励农村小学生学习体育活动和健康饮食行为的策略。我们评估了从幼儿园到五年级学生的身体活动、健康饮食和水消耗的知识,在基线和干预后立即进行。Get enchanted是一个针对小学年龄儿童的为期六周的项目,旨在增加参与者对健康生活方式行为的知识和意识。一项前-后评估评估了在k-5年级的小学学龄儿童(n = 22)中关于健康饮食、身体活动和水合作用的知识。频率是根据每个项目的正确回答数计算出来的。通过一系列的Wilcoxon符号秩检验来评估从基线到测试后知识的变化。三至五年级学生平均知识得分由15.56(±1.88)分上升至16.78(±1.20)分,差异有统计学意义(z = -2.41, p = 0.016)。幼儿园至二年级学生的平均基线知识由9.54(±1.66)上升至10.46(±0.66)。对于幼儿园至二年级的学生,13名参与者中有6名(z = -1.98, p = 0.048)的比例有统计学意义。在农村以学校为基础的环境中实施短期激励措施是一种实用和经济的方法,可以在引入新食品的同时增加农村小学生在体育活动、营养和水合作用方面的知识。
School-Based Nutrition and Physical Activity Program for Rural Elementary School Students: A Pilot Study
Abstract Children who eat unhealthy diets and engage in limited physical activity are susceptible to adverse health effects, such as obesity. This pilot intervention study examined the immediate impact of a health education program, Get Charmed, which used a short-run incentive program as a strategy for motivating rural elementary school students to learn about physical activity and healthy eating behaviors. We assessed kindergarten through fifth grade students’ knowledge of physical activity, healthy eating, and water consumption, at baseline and immediately following the intervention. Get Charmed is a six-week program geared toward elementary-aged children, with aims to increase participants’ knowledge and awareness around healthier lifestyle behaviors. A pre-post evaluation assessed knowledge about healthy eating, physical activity, and hydration among elementary school-aged children (n = 22) enrolled in grades k-5. Frequencies were calculated for the number of correct responses for each item. A series of Wilcoxon signed rank tests were performed to assess changes in knowledge from baseline to post-test. Average knowledge scores for the 3rd-5th grade students increased from 15.56 (± 1.88) to 16.78 (± 1.20), which was statistically significant (z = -2.41, p = 0.016). Average baseline knowledge for the kindergarten to 2nd grade students increased from 9.54 (± 1.66) to 10.46 (± 0.66). For the kindergarten to 2nd grade students, a statistically significant proportion of participants (six out of 13 participants) increased knowledge (z = -1.98, p = 0.048). Implementing Get Charmed with short-run incentives in rural school-based settings is a practical and economical approach to introducing new foods while increasing rural elementary students’ knowledge in the areas of physical activity, nutrition, and hydration.
