What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To assess changes in adiposity level among the program participants indicated by BMI measurements.

    We assess BMI of participants by using standardized stadiometers and weighing scales to attain weights and heights. Birthdates and sex of program participants were also acquired. Then, using the information of their birthdates, weight and heights, BMI percentile and BMI will be computed and analyzed.

    Measured: We will assess BMI in the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 12th month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To assess changes of fruit and vegetable intake and among program participants.

    We use fruits and vegetables frequency retrospective questions and "A day in the life" survey to assess the fruits and vegetable intake. Composite values of these two measures will decide the levels of changes in intakes.

    Measured: We will measure the changes of fruits and vegetable intakes in the 1st month (baseline), 3rd month, 7th month, and 12th month

  2. To assess changes of physical activity levels among program participants.

    We use Yamax Digiwalker (SW700) pedometer, physical activity questions, and parent proxy surveys to assess the physical activity levels. Composite values of all measures will be computed to determine the levels of change.

    Measured: We will measure the changes of physical activity level in the 1st month (baseline), 3rd month, 7th month, and 12th month
