“…To measure adolescents' perceived assistance for PA received from others, an 8-item Social Support Scale (Cronbach's α=.83 at baseline), developed by the study team, with 4 response choices ranging from (0) never to (3) often was used. Among adolescent girls, test-retest reliability was .78, and the scale demonstrated adequate validity with significant relationships with MVPA (Robbins, Ling, Dalimonte-Merckling, Sharma, Bakhoya, & Pfeiffer, 2018). To assess adolescent girls' confidence in their ability to attain PA during their free time when facing barriers or not, a 6-item PA Self-Efficacy Scale (Cronbach's α=.78 at baseline) with response choices ranging from (0) disagree a lot to (3) agree a lot was employed (Dishman, Hales, et al, 2010).…”

Background: The minimal effect of interventions to date on increasing young adolescent girls' physical activity (PA) may be due to inadequate understanding of the mechanisms underlying behavior change, yet sparse research testing a PA intervention has examined the capacity of theories to explain PA, particularly when using objective measures. Objectives: To examine whether constructs from the Health Promotion Model and Self-Determination Theory mediated changes in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) following a 17-week intervention. Methods: The study was a secondary analysis of data from a group randomized trial, including 12 intervention and 12 control schools in the Midwestern U.S. Data were collected in 2012-2016. Girls (5 th-8 th grade; N = 1519) completed surveys on perceived benefits and enjoyment of PA, PA self-efficacy, social support and motivation for PA, and barriers to PA and wore accelerometers. Results: The final path model had a good fit: χ 2 (21) = 1712.44, p < .001; GFI = 0.75; CFI = 0.32; RMSEA= 0.23; SRMR= 0.19. For MVPA change from baseline to post-intervention, enjoyment (B = 24.48, p < .001) and social support (B = 30.48, p < .001) had a positive direct effect, while the intervention had a positive indirect effect through enjoyment and social support (B = 9.13, p < .001). Enjoyment (B = −13.83, p < .001) and social support (B = −17.22, p < .001) had a negative indirect effect on MVPA change from post-intervention to follow-up.

“…In health research, various social support categories are used, including instrumental, emotional, tangible, affectionate, positive interactions or appraisal. [40][41][42][43] We used three broad social support categories: (1) emotional: expression of empathy, love, trust, care and support; (2) instrumental: tangible service or help; and (3) informational: advice, suggestions Open access and information. Table 4 records the presence (or copresence) of social support in stories.…”

ObjectiveTo use the digital story completion method to prompt participants to describe thoughts, fears and mental health experiences in response to a story stem about COVID-19, to capture a specific sociohistoric moment.DesignWe used digital story completion, a qualitative research method, to gather narratives from Australians coping with physical distancing and social restriction measures. Our reflexive thematic analysis of the data was underpinned by a constructionist approach to reflect the importance of social context in understanding health experiences.SettingAustralia.Participants52 people living in Australia (aged 18 years and over).ResultsFour meta-themes were prevalent across 52 stories submitted: (1) expressions of mental distress linked to COVID-19; (2) various coping strategies offered by characters in stories; (3) narratives outlining social support offered to alleviate distress; and (4) specialised COVID-19 vocabulary.ConclusionWe cautiously propose that points of convergence across stories indicate a level of shared experience among participants relating to COVID-19 in Australia. We suggest this is due to intensive media coverage of the pandemic, persistent public health messaging, engagement with social media and instant messaging technologies, and extended lockdowns that impacted the mental health of vast numbers of Australians.
