Interventions

Communities of communes are randomized with equal allocation to one of the two study arms: 1) the GLMC experimental arm receiving a 24-month (6 weeks each year) multilevel and TPB-based program aimin

2) the control arm that do not receive any intervention. The cluster randomization of communities of communes is computer generated considering an approach by minimization and stratification, by an in

Measure	Time frame
Physical activity practice in hours per week in children is self-recorded using an adapted version of the self-administered Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children (PAQ-C) All measurements are assessed at four time points i.e., pre- and post-intervention each year for two years as follows: • year 1, at pre-intervention 1 (T0), baseline • year 1, at post-intervention 1 (T1), end of intervention 1, 4.5 months after baseline • year 2, at pre-intervention 2 (T2), 12 months after baseline, 7.5 months follow-up after the end of intervention 1 • year 2, at post-intervention 2 (T3), end of intervention 2, 16.5 months after baseline.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
In children: 1. Physical activity is measured using an Actigraph GT3X+ accelerometer in a subsample of 400 children at … 2. TPB variables (i.e., attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and intentions) are measured using a questionnaire developed based on existing guidelines and previous TPB research among children. 3. Planning is measured using a questionnaire including five items based on the French version of the action planning scale. 4. Perceptions of active opportunities are assessed using a questionnaire including five items based on previous studies (e.g., Bélanger-Gravel et al. 2010). In parents: 1. Shared family physical activity is assessed using a questionnaire developed by Rhodes et al. (2010) 2. Physical activity parents' social support to their child is measured using a 3-item self-administered questionnaire inspired by the “praise and understanding” subscale of the Parental Involvement In Sports Questionnaire. All measurements are assessed at four time points i.e., pre- and post-intervention each year for two years as follows: • year 1, at pre-intervention 1 (T0), baseline • year 1, at post-intervention 1 (T1), end of intervention 1, 4.5 months after baseline • year 2, at pre-intervention 2 (T2), 12 months after baseline, 7.5 months follow-up after the end of intervention 1 • year 2, at post-intervention 2 (T3), end of intervention 2, 16.5 months after baseline.	—
