Study Summary
The high rates of childhood obesity in the US demand innovative and cost-effective weight gain prevention tools; mobile applications (apps) represent one such solution. Using a randomized design, the mFIT study tests the effectiveness of using commercially available apps and a physical activity (PA) monitoring device (Tech, n=50 parent-child dyads) compared to the apps and PA device plus a mobile website and theory-based family intervention that encourages increased parent-child communication about PA and healthy eating as well as family behavior change (Tech+, n=50 parent-child dyads).
