Brief Summary:
This study was conducted as a non-randomized study to evaluate the effects of physical activity interventions developed with the Nurse-led Child Health Coordinated Physical Activity Program on the physical activity levels of preschool children
Research hypotheses H1a The anthropometric measurements of the group receiving the intervention are different from the control group
H1b The physical activity levels of the group receiving intervention according to family reports are different from the control group
Research hypotheses H1a The anthropometric measurements of the group receiving the intervention are different from the control group
H1b The physical activity levels of the group receiving intervention according to family reports are different from the control group
Detailed Description:
The study group of the research consisted of 5-year-old students studying in kindergartens The total number of students in kindergartens is 159 in the research area Gpower 3194 program was used to determine the sample size of the study The sample size was determined as 42 21 in the experimental and control groups under a large effect size 080 an alpha value of 005 and a power level of 80 It was decided to include a total of 52 students in the study by accepting a loss rate of approximately 20
Because it is known that it is important to promote physical activity at an early age this study implemented interventions developed in accordance with the Coordinated Approach to Child Health Program a program consisting of classroom family and student components In the classroom component of the program health education practices were prepared to teach children to identify practice and adapt physical activity habits to their lives through the classroom environment In the family component of the program there are interventions that ensure the participation of children parents and other family members to develop physical activity habits at home Increasing physical activity in preschool children can be achieved by developing interventions that are fun and encourage children to be physically active in a structured classroom setting that promotes gross motor skills and moderate to vigorous physical activity during kindergarten and recess In this study a six-week program consisting of nurse teacher and family components developed in accordance with the Coordinated Approach to Child Health in Preschool Children program was implemented twice a week to evaluate its effects on physical activity in preschool children and its effectiveness in increasing physical activity
The interventions averaged 60 minutes per week Prior to implementation school administrators and teachers were interviewed and informed about the purpose of the research and the implementation process To inform parents and students about the research the informed consent form and parent questionnaire were sent to parents in a sealed envelope and collected from students by teachers the next day Informed consent was obtained by explaining the purpose and procedure of the study to the students whose parents had given their consent and they were asked to complete the data collection instruments through the classroom teacher pre-test The post-test was administered 2 weeks after the completion of the study The pre-test and post-test were administered by the teachers and the height-weight measurements were done by the nurse No intervention was applied to the control group except for the physical activities they perform in their daily lives Data collection instruments were administered to the control group in a similar manner and at the same time as the experimental group The primary outcomes expected from the study are anthropometric measurements and physical activity levels The research data was collected using the parent questionnaire developed by the researchers based on the literature and anthropometric measurements
