Brief Summary: The goal of this quasi-experimental study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a physical literacy-based intervention for chronic disease management in adults with chronic diseases participating in adapted physical activity group sessions in Belgium The main questions it aims to answer are

How does incorporating physical literacy elements in adapted physical activity sessions affect participants overall physical literacy levels
Can a physical literacy-oriented adapted physical activity program enhance long-term engagement in physical activities and improve health outcomes for chronic disease patients

Participants will

Undergo assessments for physical literacy levels and health outcomes at the beginning after three months and at the end of the six-month period
Engage in intervention groups in adapted physical activity sessions which may include physical fitness exercises and educational components on physical literacy

Researchers will compare 3 groups a control group a traditional Adapted Physical Activity APA group and a Physical Literacy Oriented APA APAPL group to see if integrating physical literacy components results in improved physical literacy levels better sustained engagement in physical activities and enhanced health outcomes
Detailed Description: The study employs a quasi-experimental design to investigate the impact of physical literacy-based interventions in chronic disease management Participants are recruited from the Citoyen en mouvement pour ma santé program designed for adults with chronic diseases in Belgium facilitating their engagement in adapted physical activity APA group sessions The study structure includes a control group no intervention a traditional APA group and an APA with Physical Literacy APAPL group each consisting of approximately 65 participants to account for potential dropouts and ensure robust statistical analysis

The intervention lasts six months with initial and follow-up assessments at three and six months These evaluations measure physical literacy dimensions-motivation confidence physical competence knowledge and engagement-using a combination of questionnaires and physical tests The assessment tool inspired by Whiteheads definitions and the IPLA framework encompasses six core dimensions of physical literacy It integrates closed-ended questions for quantitative analysis and open-ended questions for qualitative insights offering a comprehensive view of participants physical literacy journey

The APAPL intervention is meticulously planned following the Physical Literacy Interventions Reporting Template PLIRT focusing on enhancing physical literacy through tailored physical activity sessions These sessions led by qualified APA educators are structured to integrate physical literacy elements seamlessly into the exercise routines The program includes varied physical activities aiming to improve physical fitness endurance strength flexibility balance and instill a deeper understanding and appreciation of physical literacy in participants

The study data analysis plan involves a mixed-methods approach capturing both the quantitative changes in physical literacy scores and the qualitative experiences of participants Quantitative data will be analyzed using mixed ANOVA models to evaluate within-subject changes and between-group differences in physical literacy scores Qualitative data derived from open-ended questionnaire responses will undergo thematic analysis to identify recurring themes and insights into the participants experiences and perceptions of the intervention

Researchers will perform subgroup analyses based on age gender and chronic disease type with adjusted analyses for potential confounders The study seeks to understand the broader implications of physical literacy interventions in chronic disease management aiming to inform future public health strategies and promote sustained engagement in physical activities among chronic disease patients

This comprehensive approach to evaluating physical literacy interventions will contribute significantly to the understanding of how these interventions can be optimized to support chronic disease management in adult populations potentially guiding future healthcare practices and policies
