简要总结
The PLAYshop program is a novel, brief, theory-based, parent-focused physical literacy intervention designed to address this major public health issue of childhood physical inactivity and to support families.
Primary Research Question: Does the PLAYshop program increase preschool-aged children's physical literacy, including fundamental movement skills and motivation and enjoyment, compared to controls?
详细描述
The overall goal for the proposed study is to examine the efficacy of the PLAYshop program, a novel, brief, theory-based, parent-focused physical literacy intervention, on child- and family-specific outcomes.
Research Questions:
Primary: Does the PLAYshop program increase preschool-aged children's physical literacy, including fundamental movement skills and motivation and enjoyment, compared to controls? Secondary: Does the PLAYshop program increase preschool-aged children's physical activity and co-participation in physical activity with parents, compared to controls? Tertiary: 1) Does the PLAYshop program increase parents' capability, motivation, and opportunity to support preschool-aged children's physical literacy development, compared to controls? 2) What is the level of, and factors that influence, implementation at the family and program delivery level?
Hypotheses:
Increases in preschool-aged children's fundamental movement skills, motivation and enjoyment, physical activity, and parent-child co-participation in physical activity will be greater in the intervention group, compared to the control group. Additionally, increase in parents' capability, motivation, and opportunity to support preschool-aged children's physical literacy development will be greater in the intervention group, compared to the control group.

盲法说明
Participants: While the families will not be told explicitly if they have been assigned to the intervention or control group, they may be able to determine their group based on when their workshop is scheduled (i.e., immediately versus after completion of all study measures).
Research Coordinator: The research coordinator will be aware of the group allocations as they will be in charge of coordinating random assignment and have to schedule participants into workshops and other measures based on their specific allocation.
Outcomes Assessors: Research assistants who score children's fundamental movement skills based on recorded videos will not be told explicitly if a participant is part of the intervention or control group. Though there is a possibility that they may recall group assignment from previous data collection sessions they led.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in children's physical literacy (motivation and enjoyment; parental report)
时间窗: Baseline and 2 month follow-up
Children's motivation and enjoyment will be assessed via a parental questionnaire that includes items from the Preschool Physical Literacy Assessment (Pre PLAy). This scale includes 4 items with values of 1-5; higher values mean more motivation and enjoyment. Citation: Cairney et al. (2018)
Change in children's physical literacy (enjoyment; child report)
时间窗: Baseline and 2 month follow-up
Children's enjoyment will also be assessed via self-report using an adapted Five Degrees of Happiness Likert scale for children. This scale includes 1 item with a value of 1-5; a higher value means more enjoyment. Citation: Hall et al. (2016)
Change in children's physical literacy (fundamental movement skills)
时间窗: Baseline and 2 month follow-up
Children's fundamental movement skills, including two manipulative skills (i.e., overhand throw, underhand throw), two locomotor skills (i.e., horizontal jump, hop), and one balance/stability skill (i.e., one leg balance), will be assessed in a recorded virtual meeting. The skills are from the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD) and the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-Second Edition (MABC-2).
