Chickasaw Healthy Eating Environments Research Study (CHEERS)
Study Overview

Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This study is guided by the principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR).
Aims and Methods: Co-led by an AI (Choctaw) Investigator, the study will:
Aim #1: Evaluate CHEERS' ability to improve healthy food access by collecting quantitative data on changes in perceived ability to purchase and prepare healthy food, and by using qualitative methods to evaluate the reach, saturation, and acceptability of the CHEERS intervention.
Aim #2: Measure the intervention's effect on change in BP and secondary outcomes among hypertensive community members with poorly controlled hypertension.
Aim #3:Disseminate a multimedia documentary of the study's findings and evaluate the documentary's effect on tribal leaders across the Chickasaw Nation and other tribal communities.
Innovation: This study will evaluate the effects of a multilevel, tribally-run, food environment intervention. The study will also be one of the few food environment interventions ever implemented in an AI community, and the first to objectively measure its effects on BP and BMI.
Significance and Impact: Study findings, including a health economics assessment, will be used to encourage policies for further expansion of the Packed Promise for a Healthy Heart Program; and policies promoting expansion of brick and mortar grocery outlets in rural Chickasaw communities.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Food access
Time Frame: Measured before and after the 6 month intervention
|
USDA Household Food Security Scale (6 Item Short Module) - The sum of affirmative responses provides a household raw score.
Food security status of households with raw scores of 0-1 are high or marginally food secure, raw scores of 2-4 are low secure, and raw scores of 5-6 are very low food secure.
High raw scores indicate food insecure households.

Change in self-reported physical activity
Time Frame: Measured before and after the 6 month intervention
|
International Physical Activity Questionnaire (Short Version) provides separate scores on walking, moderate-intensity, and vigorous-intensity activity.
Total scores are calculated by summing the duration (in minutes) and frequency (days) of walking, moderate-intensity, and vigorous-intensity activities.
High scores indicate better levels of physical activity.
