Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) to Construct Weight Loss Interventions for African American Adolescents

Abstract: Objective To develop an adaptive behavioral treatment for African American adolescents with obesity. Method In a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial, 181 youth ages 12 to 16 years with primary obesity and their caregiver were first randomized to 3 months of home-based versus office-based delivery of motivational interviewing plus skills building. After 3 months, non-responders to first phase treatment were re-randomized to continued home-based skills or contingency management. Primary outcome was… Show more

“…Our team is investigating the role of RRV in basic research and as a moderator of intervention treatment effects in African American adolescents. In our sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART), 54 African American adolescents (12-16 y/o) with obesity (BMI≥95 th percentile) completed 3 months of motivational interviewing plus skills building with their caregivers in their home or clinic (first randomization). Adolescents who did not lose at least 3% of their baseline body weight were re-randomized to complete three months of contingency management (reinforcement for weight loss) or additional skill building in their home.…”
