About this study
Official title: Black Girls Move: A Daughter/Mother Intervention to Prevent Obesity by Increasing Physical Activity and Improving Dietary Intake Among Black Adolescent Daughters
Black Girls Move is a school-linked daughter/mother physical activity and dietary behavior program, with 9th and 10th grade students. This program is designed to prevent obesity in Black adolescent females and thus aligns with the NIH mission to enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability. This project is relevant to public health because it holds the potential to reduce population health disparities impacted by structural racism.
Read the detailed description
Black female adolescents are at increased risk for obesity-related morbidity and mortality as adults compared to non-Hispanic White female adolescents. Interventions to prevent obesity in Black female adolescents that leverage the relationship of the daughter/mother dyad have received limited attention. Studies that do include mothers tend to use theoretical frameworks that do not explicitly build on this important family relationship and have not included mothers' active participation. Additionally, these studies do not include girls over the age of 12. In response, the investigators developed Black Girls Move, a school-based obesity prevention intervention that addresses these limitations in the extant literature. The investigators conducted focus groups with daughter/mother dyads to identify practical, cultural, and age-appropriate strategies for improving physical activity (PA) and dietary behaviors in Black adolescent daughters (grades 9-10, ages 14-17). Black Girls Move consists of 12 weekly group sessions of daughter/mother dyads in which participants set individualized PA and dietary goals. Black Girls Move incorporates content and processes derived from asset-based anti-racist Public Health Critical Race Praxis, Family Systems Theory, and Social Cognitive Theory. Specific aims are to determine the efficacy of Black Girls Move compared to daughters-only comparison condition on change in PA and dietary intake, and the impact of Black Girls Move compared to daughters-only on theoretical mechanisms of change (racial identity, daughter/mother relationship, social cognitions) assessed by self-report measures.
The design is a 12-week pre-test/post-test, randomized controlled trial. The investigators will recruit 24 daughter/mother dyads at each of 8 schools for a total sample size of 192 daughter/mother dyads (total 384 participants). Within school, each dyad will be randomized to either Black Girls Move or daughters-only comparison condition (12 per condition). All daughters and all mothers (Black Girls Move daughter/mother dyads and daughters-only comparison condition daughter/mother dyads) complete assessments (e.g., PA, diet, family measures) at baseline, post-intervention, and 3-months post-intervention. The investigators recognize that there are potential validity threats associated with within school student randomization. The investigators will collect data to assess the degree to which these potential threats are pertinent. The long-term goal of this research is to decrease disparities in obesity and associated comorbidities in Black women. The findings may inform future large scale R01 studies of BGM in Black daughter/mother dyads

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Black Girls MoveBehavioural
Goal setting and monitoring. All BGM daughters will self-monitor their progress towards PA goals using a PA device, Fitbit®. Additionally, BGM daughters will self-monitor their progress towards diet goals using a mobile application, Start Simple with My Plate®. Further, all BGM mothers will use Fitbit® and Start Simple with My Plate® for self monitoring, however, mothers' data will not be analyzed for this study. Since the daughter/ mother relationship is critical to achieving behavioral change, BGM mothers will utilize Fitbit® and Start Simple with My Plate® as a mechanism to communicate, problem solve and support daughters' behavioral goals.BGM is situated within the contexts of environmental, cultural, interpersonal, and developmental factors impacted by structural racism. Intentionally engaging mothers and daughters in an asset based program provides a framework for mothers to model responses to structural racism i.e. racial socialization.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Black Girls Move (BGM) Treatment Condition | Experimental | BGM is guided by the Anti-Racist Public Health Critical Race Praxis with adaptive mechanisms to support Black adolescent females as they navigate a racist society. The BGM treatment condition will include mothers as active participants in all components of the weekly, 12-session intervention to test the impact of actively leveraging the daughter/mother relationship . Participants in our prior research endorsed the importance of daughters and mothers actively engaging in group meetings together on weekends. Participants set PA and diet goals and self-monitor goal attainment. Dyads participate in structured activities designed to facilitate communication, problem solving, role assignment, and relationship quality. Dyads use a variety of videos, role play, discussion, and activities to achieve session outcomes. The sessions are led by trained facilitators who follow a standardized facilitator manual. Receives: Behavioral: Black Girls Move |
| Daughters-Only Comparison Condition (DOCC) | Active comparator | The DOCC runs parallel to the BGM intervention and includes daughters-only group meetings. The DOCC incorporates all components of BGM except Family Systems Theory strategies. Daughters in DOCC will receive PA and diet behavior content based on Anti-Racist Public Health Critical Race Praxis and Social Cognitive Theory with daughter-only group activities. DOCC facilitators will lead group meetings and discussions. All DOCC daughters will self-monitor their progress towards PA goals using Fitbit® and progress towards diet goals using Start Simple with My Plate®. Receives: Behavioral: Black Girls Move |
