简要总结
The purpose of this investigation is to conduct an 8-week pilot study to examine the effects of two different leisure-time activity prescriptions on dietary intake, leisure-time activities, and weight loss in 30 adults receiving an 8-week behavioral weight loss intervention.
详细描述
In adult observational studies, TV viewing has been positively related to overweight and obesity. It is theorized that TV watching influences eating and activity behaviors, such that with greater TV watching less physical activity and greater consumption of energy occurs, producing a positive energy balance state. While no experimental research has been conducted with adults examining the influence of reducing TV watching on weight status, experimental research conducted with children does indicate that lower levels of TV watching can produce reduced energy intake and greater levels of physical activity. Most importantly, family-based, behavioral childhood obesity interventions that have targeted reducing sedentary behaviors (which includes TV watching) have found that as compared to targeting increasing physical activity during treatment, similar increases in activity and fitness occur, but that greater weight loss and greater increases in liking for physical activity occur when sedentary behaviors, as compared to physical activity, are targeted in family-based behavioral childhood weight control programs.
All participants in the investigation will receive a standard 8-week behavioral obesity intervention. The intervention will include a reduced caloric prescription (1200-1500 kcal/day) and fat gram prescription (30% or less kcals from fat). One condition will receive an activity goal (200 minutes/week of moderate-intense physical activity [Physical Activity]), while the other condition will receive a TV watching goal (10 hours/week) and a physical activity goal (200 minutes/week of moderate-intense physical activity [TV + Physical Activity]. Participants will be assessed at 0 and 9 weeks (pre- and post-intervention) on measures of dietary intake, physical activity, TV watching, time-use, motivation, liking of physical activity and TV watching, and weight.

结局指标
主要结局
Time spent in moderate-intensity physical activity
时间窗: Week 9
Participants will be given a closed motion sensor (Omron HJ-720 ITC Pocket Pedometers) to wear over the course of the program to measure number of steps and time spent engaged in moderate -intensity and higher physical activity. Days in which the sensor has been worn at least 10 hours only will be counted towards the seven days. The motion sensors will be downloaded onto computers at the baseline assessments and at week 9. During weeks 0 and 9 all participants will also keep a record of the self-reported physical activity.
Television watching time
时间窗: Week 9
TV monitoring devices ("TV Allowances") will be hooked onto participants' home TVs by research staff. The devices will record the number of hours per week of TV the research participant is watching. Participants will also be asked to keep a record of their self-reported TV watching at 0 and 9 weeks.
次要结局
- Liking of physical activity and TV watching(Week 9)
- Motivation for physical activity(Week 9)
- Dietary Intake (calories and % calories from fat) during TV watching or computer use(Week 9)
