At baseline, participants completed SCT scales related to physical activity (i.e., self-efficacy, intention, parental support, and outcome expectations). At baseline and 12-month follow-up (postintervention), participants wore accelerometers for 7 days. Structural equation modeling was used to determine if Time 1 measures predicted physical activity at 12-month follow-up after adjusting for baseline activity. Results: The model explained 28% and 34% of the variance in physical activity and intention, respectively. Model fit indexes indicated the data were a good fit to the model; however, only self-efficacy was associated with physical activity at 12 months. There was no support for intention or outcome expectations as proximal determinants of behavior. Self-efficacy was associated with outcome expectations and parental support; however, only outcome expectations predicted intention. Conclusions: Current findings indicate a large proportion of the variance for physical activity and intention remains unexplained and that the proposed pathways in the SCT model were not fully supported. Future model testing may need to consider augmentation or integration of theoretical models, which may include ecological components if we are to advance our understanding of physical activity behavior in this subgroup of the adolescent population.]]> Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:33:46 AEST ]]> The Nutrition and Enjoyable Activity for Teen Girls study: a cluster randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:14521 Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:33:44 AEST ]]> Video game genre preference, physical activity and screen-time in adolescent boys from low-income communities https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18557 Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:10:50 AEST ]]> Self-determined motivation and physical activity in children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20821 Wed 04 Sep 2019 11:04:54 AEST ]]> Supporting public health priorities: recommendations for physical education and physical activity promotion in schools https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26815 Wed 04 Sep 2019 10:52:27 AEST ]]> Physical activity and skills intervention: SCORES cluster randomized controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:25667 Wed 04 Sep 2019 10:38:01 AEST ]]> Variety support and exercise adherence behavior: experimental and mediating effects https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29638 Wed 04 Sep 2019 10:31:06 AEST ]]> Temporal and bidirectional associations between physical activity and sleep in primary school-aged children https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34509 Wed 04 Sep 2019 10:06:32 AEST ]]> School physical activity intervention effect on adolescents' performance in maths https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36330 Wed 01 Apr 2020 12:47:03 AEDT ]]> Young people's perceptions of the objective physical activity monitoring process: a qualitative exploration https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32859 Tue 31 Jul 2018 11:48:17 AEST ]]> Review of High-Intensity Interval Training for Cognitive and Mental Health in Youth https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46689 Tue 29 Nov 2022 09:35:58 AEDT ]]> The Development and Evaluation of Netball-Specific High-Intensity Interval Training Sessions: The Netball-HIIT Study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54516 Tue 27 Feb 2024 15:45:57 AEDT ]]> The health benefits of muscular fitness for children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15536 Tue 24 Aug 2021 14:37:58 AEST ]]> Role of physical activity and sedentary behavior in the mental health of preschoolers, children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36684 Tue 23 Jun 2020 16:34:42 AEST ]]> Optimising the effects of physical activity on mental health and wellbeing: A joint consensus statement from Sports Medicine Australia and the Australian Psychological Society https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51133 Tue 22 Aug 2023 15:57:59 AEST ]]> Physical activity, sedentary behaviour and mental health in young people: A review of reviews https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44604 Tue 18 Oct 2022 08:37:39 AEDT ]]> Testing physical activity mediators in an intervention for sedentary older adults https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17560 Tue 16 Jun 2015 20:07:16 AEST ]]> Recommendations for exercise in adolescents and adults with congenital heart disease https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46322 Tue 15 Nov 2022 15:57:28 AEDT ]]> Physical activity intervention for rural middle-aged and older Australian adults: a pilot implementation study of the ecofit program delivered in a real-world setting https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43883 Tue 04 Oct 2022 13:45:44 AEDT ]]> Psychological, social and physical environmental mediators of the SCORES intervention on physical activity among children living in low-income communities https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30960 Tue 04 Jun 2019 13:26:08 AEST ]]> Prevalence and correlates of resistance training skill competence in adolescents https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33482 squat, lunge and overhead press, whereas males performed better on the push-up (p < .05).

Theoretical constructs across the three theories were tested to prospectively predict PA behaviour (objective and self-report) across three 6-month time intervals (baseline-6, 6-12, 12-18 months) using structural equation modelling. PA outcomes were steps/3 days (objective) and minutes of MET-weighted PA/week (self-report). Results: The mean proportion of variance in PA explained by these models was 6.5% for objective PA and 8.8% for self-report PA. Direct pathways to PA outcomes were stronger for self-report compared with objective PA. Conclusions: These theories explained a small proportion of the variance in longitudinal PA studies. Theory development to guide interventions for increasing and maintaining PA in adults with type 2 diabetes requires further research with objective measures. Theory integration across social-cognitive models and the inclusion of ecological levels are recommended to further explain PA behaviour change in this population. Statement of contribution What is already known on this subject? Social-cognitive theories are able to explain partial variance for physical activity (PA) behaviour. What does this study add?

Conclusions: Through the application of multiple implementation support strategies, secondary schools were able to overcome commonly known barriers to implement evidence based school PA practices. As such practices have been shown to result in an increase in adolescent PA and improvements in weight status, policy makers and practitioners responsible for advocating PA in schools should consider this implementation approach more broadly when working with schools. Follow-up is required to determine whether practice implementation is sustained.
