“…To measure lifestyle knowledge enhancement, we used the health knowledge questionnaire developed by Saksvig and colleagues [29], based on previous work from the CATCH Health Behaviors Program [30] and the Kahnawake Schools Diabetes Prevention Program [31]. The questionnaire aims to measure change in diet and physical activity psychosocial constructs in children over time.…”

Abstract:Traditionally diabetes education has relied on written materials, with limited resources available for children with diabetes. Mobile games can be effective and motivating tools for the promotion of children's health. In our earlier work, we proposed a novel approach for designing computer games aimed at educating children with diabetes. In this paper, we apply our game design to a mobile Android game (Mario Brothers). We also introduce four heuristics that are specifically designed for evaluating the mobile game, by adapting traditional usability heuristics. Results of a pilot study (n=12) to evaluate game play over 1-week showed that the children found the game engaging and improved their knowledge of healthy diet and lifestyle.

“…The approach also provides opportunity to have frank discussions with members of the community and the technical team so that concerns are addressed, adequate information regarding the planned intervention is shared before the development of plan of action which will ultimately facilitate the success of the program as was reported in Canada (Macaulay et al, 1997) and India (National Informatics Centre, 2005).…”

The continued challenges in public health programs and in particular the dearth of tested approaches that hinges on systems thinking approach, holistic planning and implementation with all relevant stakeholder calls for newer approaches in public health leadership. This work advances a unified leadership theory drawn from skills approach, high coaching and high directive behavior and system thinking approach. The unified leadership approach underscored key leadership themes: system thinking, vision, power sharing, process based and collateral leaderships. It is expected that such a multi-prong approach will strengthen holistic planning with input from all concerned partners, facilitate clarity of roles and balancing of power so that it will improve coordination, collaboration, commitment, program sustainability and oversight function that will result in effective public health interventions.

“…The data collected from children in grades 1-6 included anthropometric measurements, questionnaires to evaluate eating, screen time and physical activity behaviors and a fitness test (Macaulay et al, 1997). Repeated measurements were taken over eight years to evaluate the impact of the interventions (Paradis et al, 2005).…”

In this paper, we suggest that participatory research (PR) is neither a research methodology, nor uniquely associated with qualitative methods, but rather an approach to research through which stakeholders can implement quantitative, qualitative or mixed methods study designs. By illustrating three partnerships retained in our recent systematic review of PR, we highlight issues involved in partnered quantitative research. Examples demonstrate that commitment to dialogue and consensus building among partnership stakeholders is key to ensuring that methods generate scientifically valid research without creating community harm, loss of reputation, stigma or without generating feelings of denial, betrayal and exclusion.
