简要总结
The purpose of this research is to learn about how to promote physical activity among adolescent girls by testing the feasibility and initial effectiveness of the Girls Can...Move! intervention. Girls Can...Move! will target each component of physical literacy by providing opportunities for adolescent girls to gain knowledge about their own physical activity level, to explore and practice different types of physical activities, and to learn from active female role models. Female participants (n = 30) from one middle school will be randomly assigned to the Girls Can...Move! intervention group or a control group at a 1:1 ratio. The primary outcome variables, physical activity and physical literacy, will be assessed before and after the 8-week Girls Can...Move! intervention using accelerometers and online surveys.

研究组 & 干预措施
Control
No-treatment group that only participates in pre- and post-testing.
Experimental
Experimental group participants will receive the 8-week Girls Can...Move! program.
干预措施: Girls Can...Move! (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in physical literacy
时间窗: pre-intervention (week 0) and immediately following 8-week intervention period (week 9)
Participants will complete measures of self-reported physical literacy (PLAYself survey) at pre- and post-intervention to measure change in perceived physical literacy between experimental and control groups.
Feasibility of the Girls Can...Move! intervention
时间窗: pre-intervention (week 0)
The number of participants enrolled, intervention session attendance (experimental group only), and participant satisfaction with intervention (experimental group only) will be included as feasibility measures.
Change in physical activity
时间窗: pre-intervention immediately following 8-week intervention period (week 9)
Participants will wear an Actigraph accelerometer to measure change in physical activity from pre- to post- intervention for the experimental compared to control group.
次要结局
- Change in peer social support(pre-intervention (week 0) and immediately following 8-week intervention period (week 9))
- Change in parental social support(pre-intervention (week 0) and immediately following 8-week intervention period (week 9))
