Parents as the Agent of Change for Childhood Obesity (PAAC)

30 de noviembre de 2015 actualizado por: Kerri Boutelle, University of California, San Diego
The overall intent of this study is to explore a promising mode for delivering treatment for childhood obesity via parent education only, and to evaluate the cost effectiveness compared to the current gold standard treatment of parent-and-child dual education.

Descripción detallada

This study is a randomized clinical trial in which 150 overweight 8-12 year old children and their parent will be randomly assigned by the gender of the child to one of two conditions; a parent-only intervention or a parent + child intervention. Both treatment arms will provide behavioral treatment for childhood obesity for 5 months, and participants will be followed for 18-months post-treatment. Assessments will occur at baseline, immediately post-treatment, 6-12- and 18-months post-treatment. The overall intent of this study is to explore a promising mode for delivering treatment for childhood obesity (parent-only), and to evaluate the cost effectiveness compared to the current gold standard treatment of parent + child. Results of these studies will be utilized as evidence to recommend changes in the standard treatment for childhood obesity. This program of research is critical for exploring and developing interventions that mobilize parents to intervene with their overweight and obese children. The timing of this research is optimal given the increase in childhood obesity in the United States, and the need for disseminative intervention and prevention programs.

Armas e Intervenciones

Grupo de participantes/brazo
Intervención / Tratamiento
Experimental: Parent-only Group
Treatment will be administered to parents of the overweight child. Parent-only group treatment will include all of the same skills and techniques to promote weight loss, but the information will be delivered only to the parent. Participation of the children assigned to the parent-only treatment arm will be limited to the baseline and follow-up assessments.
Parent-only group will include the same skills and techniques to promote weight loss as given to the parent + child group, but the information will be delivered only to the parent. Parent group will be compared to the parent group of the parent + child treatment arm. The focus will be on implementing skills learned to assist the child in weight management. The treatment length is set for 12 weekly meetings and bi-monthly meetings during months 4 and 5. Each group session will be 60-min including weigh-ins. Group meetings focus on behavior change, weight loss, healthy eating and activity for the overweight child and parent.

Comparador activo: Parent + child Group
The treatment for participants in the parent + child arm will be administered in two separate groups, one for the parents and one for the child.
The treatment for participants in the parent + child group will be administered in two separate groups, one for the parents and one for the child. Treatment will include the same skills and techniques to promote weight loss as given to the parent-only group, but the information will be delivered to both the parent and child. The treatment length, session schedule, treatment content and follow-up assessments are same as the parent-only group.
