The study examined the influence of parent involvement and family factors on body mass index (BMI) change in a pediatric obesity treatment program.
A total of 104 children and their caregivers were examined during a 12-week obesity intervention. Participants (mean age = 11.42 years; SD = 2.83) and their caregivers completed measures of family environment and depression prior to enrollment. Children's BMI and parental involvement were rated weekly during the intervention. Logistic regressions were conducted to examine the role of sociodemographic factors, family characteristics, and parent involvement on weight.
Children with the lowest parent involvement were less likely to lose any weight or have clinically significant (>or=2 kg) weight loss. Demographics and family factors did not predict BMI change. Parent involvement related to ethnicity, absences and physical activity.
Parental involvement may be helpful in identifying who is likely to do well in a weight loss program.
本研究探讨了家长参与度和家庭因素对儿童肥胖治疗项目中体重指数（BMI）变化的影响。
在为期12周的肥胖干预期间，共对104名儿童及其照顾者进行了检查。参与者（平均年龄 = 11.42岁；标准差 = 2.83）及其照顾者在入组前完成了家庭环境和抑郁状况的测量。在干预期间，每周对儿童的BMI和家长参与度进行评分。进行逻辑回归分析，以检验社会人口学因素、家庭特征和家长参与度对体重的作用。
家长参与度最低的儿童减轻任何体重或实现临床上显著（≥2千克）体重减轻的可能性较小。人口统计学和家庭因素无法预测BMI变化。家长参与度与种族、缺勤情况和身体活动有关。
家长参与可能有助于确定谁在减肥项目中可能表现良好。
