The purpose of this research was to examine the translatability of an existing school-based physical activity intervention. More specifically, this research sought to identify the barriers and facilitators in adopting, implementing, and maintaining a school-based physical activity intervention using RE-AIM as a theoretical evaluation framework. It was concluded that interventions that consider issues around complexity and compatibility with the school setting are more likely to be adopted, implemented, and maintained. It was recommended that future evaluations of physical activity interventions should not be limited to testing internal validity, but should consider external validity and ecological aspects, relevant to increasing dissemination in real-world settings. | Gov't Doc #: | 21421774 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/11228 | DOI: | 10.1177/1524839910366101 | Journal: | Health promotion practice | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21421774 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Adolescent Child Evidence-Based Practice Exercise Female Health Promotion.methods Humans Male Physical Education and Training.methods Queensland Schools |
