Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
ADAPT+ is designed as an 6-week intervention. For each session, children and parents participate in separate 1.5-hour group meetings, followed by a joint goal setting session. Practical strategies related to improving diet and physical activity as well as the role of dealing with parent stress-related factors related to making long-lasting behavioral changes in the family are addressed.
Enhanced Usual Care is an abbreviated version of the full ADAPT+ intervention in which parents are engaged in a one-time, two hour information session to also learn knowledge and skills to improve the health and lifestyle behaviors for their child and for themselves.
