Download or read book Youth Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior written by Alan L. Smith and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2008 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Using a multidisciplinary approach, Youth Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior breaks away from traditional thinking that places activity and sedentary behavior on a single continuum, which may limit progress in addressing youth inactivity. Instead, the authors encourage readers to focus on how sedentary and physically active behaviors coexist and consider how the two behaviors may have different determinants." "Youth Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior: Challenges and Solutions considers current research about youth physical activity and sedentary behavior across a range of personal factors as well as cultural and social influences. The text communicates the knowledge base on developmental, economic, psychological, and social factors related to youth physical activity and sedentary behavior and provides an overview of youth-specific approaches to addressing the problem of inactivity among youth."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book The PACE School Study written by Judith Jane Prochaska and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interventions that target multiple health behaviors for change have the potential to offer greater health benefits, more adequately address participants' behavioral profiles, and maximize health promotion opportunities. The added demand placed on individuals, however, may be overwhelming. The impact of targeting multiple behaviors concurrently, as opposed to one individually has not been investigated. The current study evaluated the efficacy of a computer-based physical activity only or a combined physical activity and nutrition intervention with adolescents. The PACE+ program assessed adolescents' physical activity and dietary behaviors, provided tailored feedback, and was used to create individualized behavior change plans with identified settings for change, sources of social support, and relevant benefits of and barriers to change. Subjects (N = 138, age M = 12, 65% female, 28% Caucasian) were recruited from a middle school in San Diego and randomly assigned to the multibehavioral or single behavior intervention or the control condition. All conditions involved working on the computer. Primary outcomes were 5-day accelerometer and 3-day dietary record data. Assessments were made at baseline and 3-months follow-up. Behavior change was examined overall in a combined index and for the behaviors individually. The single behavior intervention exhibited greater overall change than the control condition (p = .011) and multibehavioral intervention (p = .091). Effect sizes were in the moderate range (d = 0.34 to 0.58). Repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests revealed a significant treatment effect for physical activity among boys but not girls. Boys in the intervention conditions increased or maintained their physical activity, while control subjects and girls in all conditions declined. Minimal change was achieved for fruit and vegetable consumption. Theoretical mediators (decisional balance, self-efficacy, processes of change, peer support) predicted change in behavior, but effects were independent of the intervention. The findings suggest greater efficacy for interventions that target a single behavior for change.

Key lifestyle modalities such as physical activity, nutrition, weight management, sleep, stress reduction, and positive connections with other humans are supported by detailed discussion and state-of-the-art evidence. The expanded section on behavioral medicine provides an important framework for these discussions. Every chapter has been completely revised and many new topics added, such as lifestyle medicine for nursing, psychiatry, and preventive neurology. The fourth edition of this classic text continues to serve as the leading, comprehensive textbook in lifestyle medicine. The original has been called the “indispensable bible” of lifestyle medicine, and the fourth edition of this work continues to justify this designation. There is no longer any serious doubt that daily habits and actions have a significant impact on multiple aspects of health. The fourth edition of Lifestyle Medicine provides the scientific evidence to support this assertion and will serve as an invaluable reference and guide, not only to lifestyle medicine practitioners but to all primary care physicians, subspecialty physicians, nurses, and other healthcare practitioners.
