Abstract |
This paper presents a conceptual model illustrating a targeted approach to the design and delivery of health behavior interventions that focus on physical activity promotion. We hypothesize that researchers who i) enhance the socio-cultural relevance of their core intervention components, and ii) recognize the unique contributions of both intervention design and delivery, will experience greater intervention engagement and improved outcomes. This paper presents a conceptual model of key factors that characterize a socio-culturally targeted approach to physical activity intervention design and delivery. |
