To describe the quality and completeness of the description and reporting of physical activity and exercise interventions delivered to young people to promote mental health or treat mental illness.
We conducted a series of scoping reviews identifying 64 controlled trials of physical activity and exercise interventions delivered to young people. We extracted: intervention characteristics, personnel and delivery format, the intensity, duration, frequency and type of physical activity or exercise.
There was limited reporting of intervention details across studies; 52% did not provide information to confidently assess intervention intensity, 29% did not state who delivered the intervention, and 44% did not specify the intervention delivery format.
We recommend that authors adhere to the CONSORT reporting requirements and its intervention reporting extensions, (a) the Template for Intervention Description and Replication, (b) Consensus for Exercise Reporting Template and (c) as part of this, detail the frequency, intensity, time and type of physical activity recommendations and prescriptions. Without this, future trials are unable to replicate and extend previous work to support or disconfirm existing knowledge, leading to research waste and diminishing translation and implementation potential.
描述针对促进心理健康或治疗精神疾病的年轻人开展的身体活动和运动干预措施的描述和报告的质量和完整性。
我们进行了一系列范围界定综述，确定了 64 项针对年轻人开展的身体活动和运动干预措施的对照试验。我们提取了：干预措施的特征、人员和交付形式、强度、持续时间、频率和类型的身体活动或运动。
研究中对干预细节的报告有限；52%的研究未提供信息以有信心评估干预强度，29%的研究未说明谁提供了干预，44%的研究未指定干预交付形式。
我们建议作者遵守 CONSORT 报告要求及其干预报告扩展，（a）干预描述和复制模板，（b）运动报告模板共识，（c）作为其中的一部分，详细说明身体活动建议和处方的频率、强度、时间和类型。如果没有这些，未来的试验将无法复制和扩展以前的工作，以支持或否定现有的知识，导致研究浪费和降低转化和实施的潜力。
