Purpose 1) Explore stakeholders’ experiences with SB-PFT; 2) identify: challenges in analyzing fitness data, ways schools can use fitness data, and predictors of meeting fitness benchmarks. Methods Data were collected in a partner school district (King County, Washington, USA). We conducted and analyzed qualitative interviews with middle schoolers (n = 30), parents (n = 20), and school staff (n = 5); and identified student-level predictors of meeting fitness benchmarks with two-level mixed effects logistic regression models using district’s fitness assessment data (grades 4–8). Results Stakeholders identified challenges and provided feedback on SB-PFT, and predictors of meeting fitness benchmarks were identified. Discussion Findings suggest SB-PFT has potential to be useful in promoting adolescents’ fitness, but opportunities exist to improve the testing process and the ways that results are shared and utilized. Translation to Health Education Practice: Teachers would benefit from resources to understand and discuss the role of SB-PFT in a physically active lifestyle with students, ensure a positive testing experience by conducting assessments more privately and taking the time to practice assessments beforehand, and track testing outcomes and relevant demographics.

Three weeks after participants ended cardiac rehabilitation, follow-up data were collected. Results Positive affective associations were not a significant predictor of physical activity intentions and showed no evidence of mediation of physical activity intention and physical activity. Intentions were not a significant mediator between the intervention and physical activity. Discussion The results indicate that the intervention did not change positive affective associations or increase physical activity behavior. Future research should consider including additional aspects of ACT in the intervention with a longer intervention period.

Methods A quasi-experiment (pretest-posttest design) among the working class aged 18–64 years who received the radio drama intervention. The paired samples t-test and Cohen’s d statistics were adopted to test the hypotheses. Results There were significant differences in the knowledge (t(38) = −3.852, p < .05), attitude (t(38) = −2.719, p < .05) and practice-intention of hypertension prevention (t(38) = −4.958, p < .05) among participants exposed to the radio drama intervention. The effect size of the intervention was large for knowledge (d = 0.961) and practice-intention (d = 1.129) but medium (d = 0.584) for attitude toward hypertension prevention.

The U.S. has more than one mass shooting a day in which four or more people are injured or killed. However, mass shootings are only the tip of the iceberg of gun violence. Among developed nations, the U.S. is an outlier in both gun possession and gun deaths. Gun deaths affect not only the victim but also have significant short and long term emotional and economic consequences on family, friends, the community and the psyche of the nation. Nationally, gun violence prevention remains elusive. History on many contentious issues, including smoking and automobile safety, suggest meaningful change can occur. Often these changes are associated with a triad of factors. These include sustained advocacy and education efforts, often over many years, incremental changes along the way using an upstream-downstream approach, accompanied by public education and supportive public opinion. Finally, and importantly, it suggests what health educators and citizens can do to address the gun violence problem.","PeriodicalId":46846,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Health Education","volume":"54 1","pages":"1 - 9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47997053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evaluations exploring advantages and disadvantages of delivering public health events virtually are generally lacking. Purpose The aims of the present paper were to evaluate the reach, feasibility, and effectiveness of delivering RIWDD virtually. Methods Quantitative methods were used to: (1) estimate and compare the target population to RIWDD’s event reach; and (2) evaluate whether diabetes knowledge increased amongst attendees. Qualitative methods assessed event facilitators’ perceptions of the strengths, limitations, and challenges of using a virtual format to inform planning and implementation of future RIWDD events. Results Results revealed segments of RI’s population disproportionately affected by diabetes, including men, persons of color, and older adults were underrepresented at the event. The event was not associated with increases in diabetes knowledge; however, attendees possessed high diabetes knowledge overall. Facilitators identified several important factors associated with virtual delivery in the context of COVID-19. Discussion Considerations for delivering virtual events are discussed.
