Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Height and weight were measured to obtain the data necessary to calculate BMI. The Tanita BWB-800-S digital scale was used to obtain weight in kilograms for each participant. The process was repeated three times and a mean weight was calculated. A calibrated stadiometer, portable professional PE-AIM-101, was used to obtain the height in centimeters of each subject. This procedure will be repeated two additional times. The height to the nearest tenth of a centimeter (0.1 cm) was recorded each time. Measured at baseline and again 6 months post-baseline.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Diet was assessed in children using 24-hour dietary recall assessments. Two 24-hour dietary recall assessments were completed by the target child at each measurement period. Diet was assessed in adults using a food frequency questionnaire. Parents completed the Diet History Questionnaire, a 124-item FFQ, developed and maintained by the National Institutes of Health. 2. Physical activity was assessed in children using accelerometry providing a direct measure of light, moderate and vigorous physical activity completed by the children while the monitors were worn. We utilized MTI Actigraph 7164 activity monitors. Physical activity was measured in adults using the Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors (CHAMPS) self-report instrument. 3. A household availability scale asked parents whether selected foods (e.g., fruit and vegetables) and physical activity equipment were in the home. The attitude questionnaire for adults included questions about confidence to make changes in diet and physical activity and the amount of support parents feel they received from family and friends to make these changes. The attitude questionnaire for children asked how confident children feel about making changes in diet and physical activity. Measured at baseline and again 6 months post-baseline.	—
