Study Summary
Obesity is a multi-dimensional problem that has roots in infancy and tracks into adulthood. Obesity is represented disproportionately among children and families from low socioeconomic and minority backgrounds, particularly in rural areas that have limited access to food, activity, and health-related services. There is a need for culturally-tailored, effective interventions that can positively impact the environments (home, preschool, community) in which young children grow and develop their eating and activity behaviors. Developing family interventions, particularly for families with limited resources, requires improving caregivers' health literacy and home food/activity environments, and also requires tailoring to accommodate the realities of stressful and unpredictable family settings. The overall objective of this proposed HEROs Study (HEalthy EnviROnments Study) is to develop a companion, technology-based, interactive family intervention that will promote healthy lifestyles for young children in both Head Start and family settings.
Primary Outcome
The Healthy Kids (HK) survey (Townsend et al 2018) examines 23 behaviors in the child's family environment to identify nutrition, activity, and child feeding factors associated with pediatric obesity in low-income populations. Survey responses will be coded using 4 response options per item (4=most healthful; 1=least healthful). Items will be summed into 6 subscales: vegetables, sweetened beverages, activity (screen and physical activity), snacking, energy density, and BMI.
